The property canDelete is dependent on three other properties as

Is there a problem with my implementation of +

@"arrayController.canRemove"?
Is is a relatively well known issue that
NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew and NSKeyValueObservingOptionOld do not
work with controller properties. See:
http://homepage.mac.com/mmalc/CocoaExamples/controllers.html
What is perhaps less well known is that controller keys which don't
support the New/Old KVO observing options also don't support
NSKeyValueObservingOptionPrior.
The +keyPathsForValuesAffecting<Key> mechanism relies on
NSKeyValueObservingOptionPrior in order to do its magic.
Until such time as controller keys correctly support the KVO
observing options, you can't
a) rely on Old/New/Prior in your own observers
b) use a controller property as part of a key path in
+keyPathsForValuesAffecting<Key>

Thanks for pointing out why this is broken.
Presumably this has been radared to death.
