How about if you're implementing an initializer for a class cluster

Best thing to do about the top-level nib exception to the rule is to
use NSWindowController or NSViewController to do your nib loading.
These classes properly take responsibility for top-level objects of
the nibs they load and then all you have to do is manage the lifetime
