NSScreen deepestScreen problem?

Hello!

I'm writing a digital image viewing/organizing app, and one of the things my app does is allow the user to specify which screen he wants slideshows to appear on. It's been hard for me to get working properly since I have no access to any multi-monitor systems so I've been working closely with one of my beta testers to try to get everything working right.

He's noticed something unusual; if he chooses the "deepest screen" option (which I get in my app using +[NSScreen deepestScreen]) it doesn't work properly if he changes the depth of his screens after my app is launched. In his own words:
In fact, it works, but it uses the screen that had the best bepth when
gBrowser was launched. If I change the depth wile gBrowser is running,
then it does not work.

I do not cache the deepest screen on launch or anything (as the docs say for +[NSScreen screens]: "...screens can be dynamically reconfigured, and a display can be added or removed."). Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Thanks,
Andreas Schwarz
