There is a simple reason: the objects in the Managed object context get 
"represented" on a third window, whose contents are drawn from an Entity mode 
NSArrayController that prepares its contents automatically. If I add my 
temporary object to the MOC, it automatically gets fetched and displayed in 
that window the very moment it is inserted; that's what I wanted to avoid 
because it is confusing and thus undesirable.
