If it only needs to talk to the customview to broadcast preference

notifications. Let your preference GUI send notifications when a
preference is changed, and have any object in your application that is
affected by the preference register for said notifications.

Cool, yes, this looks better. I was looking at a cascade of method calls
to get through the heirarchy. That seemed clusmy, this sounds more
elegant.

Better still? Use NSUserDefaultsController and bind them. :) That'll take care of all the magic for you...
