If the CSS files still aren't selectable, delete the document type you have with the identifier com.example.plain-text. In a test project what I had to do to make CSS files selectable was to have one CSS document type for the app with identifier public.css and an imported type identifier for CSS with identifier public.css.
Unfortunately the project editor won't let you delete a document type. You will have to select the Info.plist file from the left side of the project window to delete a document type.
