Hrm.  I thought that at first but then I came to the conclusion that
this argument doesn't really hold water.  Plenty of operations on
view-level code are going to affect the run loop mode (-[NSResponder
presentError:], for example), and event dispatch is only relevant to
the NSWindow to which the sheet is attached anyway.

I can live with "it was put in the wrong place", and Jens makes a
point that this seems like a mechanical transformation is possible,
which is usually further evidence that something's wrong.
-[SomeSingleton makeThisObject:doThis:] instead of -[ThisObjectClass
doThis:] seems to actually fit the definition of the anti-pattern.  Oh
well, it's not *broken*, and that's the important part.
