But which is the bug? The fact that Carbon does not show the close button,
etc., as window attributes? Or the fact the Cocoa does show them as window
attributes?

In other words, why is it appropriate to list the close, minimize, zoom and
toolbar buttons of a window BOTH as children and as attributes? Well, I
guess it's more convenient to get at them as attributes than as children. Is
that it? If so, I'll file a bug on Carbon's omission.
