Why then does the Finder display an Icon when it is open to "Computer".
Mine says "Tom Waters' Computer" and it has an icon of some Macintosh
that I don't own.
What file is that associated with? What document?

Then it's bad GUI design. Apple's GUI guidelines explicitly state that
icons in the window bar must be associated with document files, and
that's exactly what I as a user would expect.
And I also wonder, what if I want an icon, and the filename, but not
the full path, which setTitleWithRepresentedFilename: seems to append
forcefully :/
You know, one beautiful thing about Cocoa is that it makes it much
harder for developers to not stick to the guidelines, such making for a
more consistent user experience. ;-)
