When I hit a key (any key), I only get a beep.

Wouldn't you also need to override acceptsFirstResponder: or whatever
it's called to return YES so AppKit knows this view may have the
keyboard focus?

And maybe Matt has the OS set to also allow focussing on buttons or
something similar? I would guess that that may cause a difference in
behavior.

Well spotted, Uli! Yes, I was able to get the "beep" by turning off "full
keyboard access". And so I discovered that in that situation, it is actually
needsPanelToBecomeKey that Laurent needs to override.

So, that solves Laurent's problem and also explains the difference in our
results. m.

It works great!
Thanks a lot for your answers.
