Thanks. I just finished making it use
-performSelectorOnMainThread:withObject:waitUntilDone: to post the
notification in the main thread.

Thanks for pointing out that it was introduced in 10.2, as I forgot to
check. But I already require 10.2 for my app, so that's not a problem.

Oh, and that URL is broken. It doesn't really matter, though, since I
don't need 10.1 (or 10.0) support, but I thought you might like to
know.
