There's a Carbon control which is a group box similar to NSBox, except
that the title has a checkbox beside it, so you can activate or
deactivate the box as a whole. Very useful. I think that's what Steve
is talking about.
It was. (Steve confirmed this off-list.)
I just checked in the HIG and Apple discourages having group boxes
that are
also buttons - see pages 149 to 152.
I don't see anywhere in that page range that they discourage using
check boxes or popup menus as the title of a group box, in fact, at the
bottom of page 149, it says "Group boxes can be untitled or titled.
Titles can be static text, a checkbox label, or text in a pop-up menu".
