I'm creating an NSWindow using initWithWindowRef, and passing in

This is so I can query some properties of the screen that the

Once I've finished with it, I need to release it, but doing so
appears to destroy the iTunes window in a rather nasty crash.
I've tried just not releasing it - However, I'm having some odd
problem where iTunes stops responding to button presses, and I
believe that this is the cause.
How can I relinquish Cocoa's hold on the window without actually
destroying it?
Creating a Cocoa window within a Carbon app like iTunes (that is, a
Carbon app that you're not in control of) is a tricky business. What
do you want to find out that you can't get from NSScreen, or
NSGraphicsContext?
