Now I'd like allow an elegant way to edit the values of a combo box's menu. I'm currently experimenting with using an outline view

Since the combo menu is not hierarchically structured, would not be NSTableView more appropriate?

It could be, but let me elaborate what I've done with an outline view:

> key1 | [value]V <- ascii combo box
V group | (2 items)
V key2 | [value]V
| value1
| value2
| value3
> key3 | [value]V

An expanded key currently uses multiple child rows for each value in the combo menu, but this has really complicated the data source and drag methods. Ideally I suppose an expanded key could replace the combo box with a table view... That would cleanly separate the data source and drag methods.

Is it really feasible/legal to insert a view in a cell?
