Neither. It's a lack of implementation. Finder/LaunchServices sends a "File Open" AppleEvent which is supposed to be caught by the NSApplicationDelegate built in to GtkosxApplication, which in turn should emit a GObjcet signal which Gnucash's file open code can handle to open the right file. I haven't written the handler for that signal.
