One interesting use of sub classing "OS X" classes is
XTeddy (
http://www.materialarts.com/XTeddy/index.html ).
Although the source code is not on the web site, the
author will send it to you, if you ask him.
The application is basically a teddy shaped window with
a teddy graphic inside.

Well, let me put it this way: I can see it as being a good thing,
but I can also see it as being a bad thing.
It would be neat to be able to see some implementation details,
just out of my own curiosity, but then again, that violates the
object-oriented nature of it; objects hide their implementations.
You shouldn't have to use them as a reference.
As for slight modifications, there are several options: subclassing,
subclassing and posing, and categories.
Yes, but sub-class how? Without the example code you're left making
WAGs, many of which will be just brick walls.
