I just commited code to do this. It should be easy enough to extend to 
other converters also. If we ever extend NSAttributedString to allow 
reading different formats, you just need a text converter bundle to be 
installed in

{standard_library_path(s)}/Bundles/TextConverters

and the principal class must implement the function

- (Class)classForFormat: (NSString *)format producer: (BOOL)flag

OR

The bundle should contain two classes

{format}Producer
{format}Consumer

See the implementation in gui/TextConverters/RTF
and gui/Source/NSAttributedString.m for more information.
