For instance, I have one NSTableView in my app which has 5 columns but I

sorted or have a per-column identifier; I just want a single header for the
whole table spanning the width of the table so that the table has a "label"
so the user can know what the contents of the table is about.
In that case, I think the recommended way (disregarding any recent
changes in the Aqua HIG) is to give your column no header and put it
in a box control. You can give that box a title.
As well, I have another table that has 5 columns but I only want 4 column
headers since I want to treat the first 2 columns as a single column (I use
2 columns internally because it eases my layout, column 1 has an icon column
2 has the name, treat them as a single item).
If all else fails, you could use a custom cell type that displays an
icon and the text in one cell. If you want sample code on how to put
another cell than NSCell in a column, check out my NSTableView
wizard. The code it generates for custom cells should help you
getting started.
