Preserving user interface properties in Core Data documents



Hi all,

What is the recommended way to preserve UI properties as part of a
document?  For example: window sizes, window position, table column
sizes, etc.

My application uses Core Data and Cocoa Bindings, and can require the
latest OS.

Should I create an entity to describe UI properties?  I guess that would
work, but would it not also make the document 'dirty' just because the
window size changed?  I know that many view classes let one store their
properties in the defaults (like NSWindow's setFrameAutosaveName:), but
that's no good because I need it in the document.

I've searched for discussions of this, but not found anything of use.
Thanks for any suggestions.
