That's odd.  I certainly didn't claim the OmniGraffle UTI, so  
BibImporter isn't reading those files (unless your LaunchServices  
cache is really corrupt).  Probably -r doesn't exclude other files  
from being imported (Omni has a Spotlight plugin for the latest  
OmniGraffle), so it's picking them up as well.
