Thanks Jim and Mmalc. I subclassed the controller and overrode add / remove. Works beautifully. As I explained to Mmalc off-list, I really don't know why I didn't think to do that.

I was stubbornly expecting something in the bindings panel to handle this. It'd be nice to have an auxiliary selector and a conditional selector built-in to the bindings to negate the need for subclassing.

connected to an NSArrayController's add: and remove: actions

add:/remove: are actions and are unrelated to bindings.

Unfortunately, I've been struggling to figure out how to add 'other actions' to that event as well. Specifically, I'm trying to add an "are you sure?" to the remove button prior to removing. I'm also trying to perform additional checks on the 'add' button.

This kind of behavior change has more to do with inheritance than bindings or with Cocoa; if you want to override what they do, you can subclass NSArrayController (or instantiate a new controller). By overriding NSArrayController's add:, you can do your checks, put up UI if you want, and then call NSArrayController's add: method.
