As you say, most data filetypes has RunType variables assigned, so that's
no use to distinguish executables from data files.
Here's an alternative suggestion: make it depend (only) upon whether the
filetype is "UNIX Ex" (&FE6). At least then if some ported software
running on RISC OS is manipulating a collection of files, and where the
resulting files will later be interpreted on Unix, where the setting of
the execute bit matters, then there's a chance that things will work out
as intended...
