After reading my post I realize it's as clear as mud. Let me try again.

I have an NSDocument app that I monitor for window notifications since I
have it wired in IB as a delegate. When the app is launched I get
notification that my window is becoming key. If I open a new window the
first window sends a notification that it did resign key and the new window
notifies that it did become key. All that is as expected.

If I then switch back to the first window I get a notification from the
second window that it did resign key but I get NO notification that the
first window is becoming key again. Why?

From this point on if I switch back and forth between windows I get no
further notifications at all. Why?

Hope this clears up the mud.
