Yes. :)

What I actually wanted to make was what I call a "padded cell" (no jokes,
please) - a cell in an NSTextField that provides more space between the edge
and the text than Apple's default (which I strongly dislike the look of).
This is indeed in an NSTextField that draws its own background, and the way
I ended up doing it is like this:

- (void)drawInteriorWithFrame:(NSRect)cellFrame inView:(NSView *)controlView
{
    [[self backgroundColor] set];
    NSRectFill(NSInsetRect(cellFrame,1.0,1.0));
    [super drawInteriorWithFrame:
        NSInsetRect(cellFrame, 3.0, 1.0) inView:controlView];
}

However, my cell is not editable and clearly more code would be needed if it
were. That's why I was hoping to mind-meld my code to yours... m.
