Here a quote from the Aqua guidelines:
"If an item is too long to fit in the list box, insert ellipses in the
middle and preserve the beginning and end of the item. Users often add
version numbers to the end of document names, so both the beginning and
end should be visible."
Although not explicitly mentioned, my reading of this is that tables
should not have variable heights. For something like a spreadsheet
application ala Excel one need to invent a new control all together
(with different behavior too). This is probably easier then hacking
NSTableView ... and better for the users...
