NSToolbarItem in NSToolbar twice - why?

Hi. I've got a problem with my NSTextView in an NSToolbarItem
again, and I'm hoping someone can help me out.

I've got an NSToolbarItem for which the view is a custom view containing
an NSTextView. To get the customization palette to work, I've had to
be clever about handling the encoding/decoding of the NSTextView
(basically, I'm removing the NSTextView from the custom view before
encoding, and adding a new NSTextView to the custom view when it
is decoded).

Here's the problem: if I have a copy of my toolbar item containing the
text view present in the toolbar, and I drag another copy of the toolbar
item into the toolbar, the new item gets added, but the old item is still
there. Both items have the same toolbar item identifier. I don't want
the old item to be there. In fact, it can lead to a crash.

The problem is the text view - if I remove it entirely from the custom view
of the toolbar item, then adding a new copy of the toolbar item automatically
removes the old item (as it should).

I'm not subclassing NSToolbar or NSToolbarItem, although I have
tried to make a subclass of NSToolbarItem which overrides allowsDuplicatesInToolbar
to always return NO, and I didn't see any change in behavior.

Can anyone tell me either why the toolbar is letting me add 2 items with
the same identifier, or why the NSTextView causes these problems, or
even better how I can prevent this from happening?

Thanks in advance . . .
