nodes are -- leave that to the view objects.

So if I understand this correctly, one view iterates the array of nodes and
tells each node "hey you, draw yourself". And another window might lists
the nodes in a table, and only tells the nodes "hey you, write your name".

Not quite. The controller managing the first view will create a subview for each one, and keep the data in these views in sync. The controller managing the second window will reference (or act as) a table view data source, and when that data source is queried it will retrieve the requested information from the appropriate node.
