dispatch_async(mainqueue, ^{ do something that's otherwise misbehaving }); is also a common idiom

In particular, this is about an NSOutlineView delegate -outlineView:viewForTableColumn:item and setting the font and size of an NSTextField retrieved from makeViewWithIdentifier:. The first time an outline section is opened up it doesn't work, the second time it works fine. Sigh.

NSOutlineView has always been a bucket of suck.
