[ANN] gandbug 0.1 (was Re: The problem with bindings)

After a bunch of "snooping" around at undocument, and otherwise "private/don't even think of shipping with this code/bound to change whenever we want/will break in the next release/we really mean it" corners of AppKit, I've come up with a little loadable bundle that will add the following debugging capabilities to your app at runtime (dumping to the console):

Dump the visual heirachy at runtime.
Show all the bindings used by that visual heirarchy
Show all objects that have values which have observers bound to them
"Trace" all the observer value notifications for above.

Note that this hasn't been extensively tested (and has some problems with array controllers, but seems to work OK for user default controllers and generic object controllers), and will probably cause your app to crash at some point, but may otherwise provide useful runtime debugging information for bindings.
