That's a shame; I don't want to require 10.5 just yet.
So basically I should just look at what IB uses for layout values
and hard-code? Or maybe would it be possible to leverage HITheme or
some other Carbon API?

I've noticed that Interface Builder shows not only a "frame"

I am trying to create a few controls programatically and it seems
like I'd get results a lot closer to what I'm expecting if I
could create them with a "layout" rectangle instead of a "frame"
rectangle. For instance, if I make an NSTabView, it's
significantly inset compared to the NSRect I've set. But if I go
into IB and create a tab control and set up its "layout"
rectangle to match what I want, the positioning is perfect.
So programatically, how do I work with "layout" rectangles
instead of "frames"?
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/DeveloperTools/Reference/
NSViewIBAdditions_Reference/Reference/Reference.html perhaps?
I know that technically I could just hard-code the margin sizes
of controls but I am hoping to avoid this… it doesn't seem future-
proof.
This was the only route prior to 10.5, sadly.
