I should just clarify: I do know about NSWindow and the window delegate’s 
involvement in returning a Field Editor, but it’s a poor fit for what I want to 
do in this case, which is to provide a custom Field Editor only for some 
specific fields, which are loaded dynamically and could end up in any of 
several different windows, which otherwise need to know nothing about them.

-[NSCell fieldEditorForView:] does exactly what I need, and it’s documented for 
this exact purpose. Unfortunately it’s a method of NSCell, not of NSControl, 
and so far it has no replacement in NSControl that can be used as cells are 
deprecated.
