Ah... I did not know that. Other... does work. (It does amaze the programmer in me though that there is an implicit assumption that the menu items should have unique names. What if another submenu has an Other? But that is beyond this question...)

@Nivas Indeed, that's why you have to write Other... instead of Open with.... This is how it should look like. It's in Spanish, but you see my point.

Also, as a side effect of adding the shortcut, the Open With context menu item (ctrl+click) becomes Always Open With whenever the keyboard shortcut is mapped: Before and After

I dont think this works. I just tried and looks like Finder confuses Open With and Always Open With (10.7.5): The keyboard shortcut pref and the error message
