You could also make aforementioned KeyHandler class a subclass of NSResponder and implement the following:

- (void)awakeFromNib
{
if (![theMainWindow makeFirstResponder:self])
NSLog(@"Failed");
}
@end

- (void)keyDown:(NSEvent *)theEvent
{
// Check keys here.
}

Of course this could be a big "no-no" but it worked for me.

Does anyone know of any sample code to get keyDowns in an application? (a window specifically)

I don't know about sample code, but all you need to do is implement -keyDown:(NSEvent *) theEvent in your window delegate. If nothing else in the responder chain takes the keys, you'll get them.
