NSOutlineView has always been a bucket of suck.

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.

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

Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
