For my find window, i want to find the topmost window under it that responds to a certain selector (findInPage:). I tried looping over the |windows| list in NSApplication, but that doesn't give me any kind of zorder info, it just finds the first window created of that type. I can't use |keyWindow| because the find window is the key window.

to find the main document window you can use

-[NSApplication mainWindow]

Also, you might want to check methods -[NSDocumentController currentDocument], -[NSApplication targetForAction:], and -[NSWindow firstResponder].

How do people normally do stuff like this?

They start by reading docs, perhaps? ;)
