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.
