Noddy array controller / bindings question

Hi folks,

I've been reading through the Bindings / KVC docs and am unsure, when reading the Key Value Coding Accessor Methods (specifically the Indexed Accessor Patterns for To-Many Properties section) at the following URL:

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ KeyValueCoding/Concepts/AccessorConventions.html

... whether an NSArrayController subclass *has* to implement:
-countOf<Key>
-objectIn<Key>AtIndex:
-insertObject:in<Key>AtIndex: (if it's mutable)
-removeObjectFrom<Key>AtIndex: (if it's mutable)

... or if this is only for array controllers whose objects aren't really arrays but need to be able to be treated as arrays (as the docs state you can do if you need to) for the purposes of KVC?

My question is: if I have an NSArrayController that has a few keys, all of which are NSMutableArrays, do I need to implement any of the above methods?

Obviously I don't mind doing those implementations but don't want to be unnecessarily reinventing the wheel. Thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction, stupid question I know. I'm not proud of myself...
Ken
