Why is it that their Toolbar does not follow the NSToolbar API? I
can't see a way that you can tell how it does not since they don't
allow customization. I know that the bookmarks bar is something a
little different but the core toolbar seems to be like it probably is a
normal NSToolbar (and it is likely that the bookmarks bar is the same -
although I am not sure since I never tried to do anything like that -
two toolbars - in anything I have worked on).
I am interested in what differences you are seeing.
Still, I think that it is a good idea to follow the HIG in general. I
always try to follow them and I have never found a conflict of interest.
Jeff.

Secondly, did anyone else notice that not only does Safari have
Metal, but is uses it's own Toolbar interface? It does not implement
the Apple's Toolbar API. The API is easy to program, and the
interface is better than what the Safari team created. I wonder why
they did that?
Probably because they were locked in a box deep in the darkest depths
of Cupertino and told not to come out until after January 7th 2003. I
doubt most Apple engineers knew of Safari's existence until very
recently.
