But sometimes (and I can not figure out, when and why) the
NSWindowController _windowDidLoad method then calls
cascadeTopLeftFromPoint: which then puts my window into the top left
corner of the screen.
If cascading is meant to be done to relative to fixed screen
positions,
then why is the first window sometimes moved, sometimes not?
I discussed this problem here:

Also, note the point made about not using deferred windows, here:

Thanks for the link!
The result of my investigations:
1. if the original position of the first window is too low or too right
(how much is too much?) then the cascading puts it into the top left
corner.
2. the n-th window gets opened n steps right and down relative to the
first position of the first window. Regardless whether this or any
later window has moved since.
I would expect a position relative to the current position of the
n-1-th window, but Apple thinks otherwise.
3. What the situation is with multiple screens I have no idea and only
one screen anyway.
Gerriet.
