Couldn't you just split it into two classes, one deprecated (say "NSBrowserView" having an updated interface while "NSBrowser" is deprecated?) You could also just have NSBrowser extend from NSBrowserView, solving some of the issues involved, though I guess there may be some problems since the inherency graph is public information. To me, its better to move a framework forward, and usually you can keep legacy code still working. The more consistent and complete Cocoa is, the more attractive it will be two new developers. That being said, I haven't had any issue implementing an NSBrowser, so I can certainly see how this isn't exactly top priority.

There's a bit of a problem with simplifying the API of an existing
class like NSBrowser, since doing so has the danger of breaking
existing code.
