I'm curious about why the button used to create a new table view entry

called "Add" instead of "New" in the context of Cocoa bindings and
master-detail layouts. All the examples I've seen use "Add."
This strikes me as inconsistent with Macintosh usage in other
contexts. The
disparity caused me to stumble a little when I first tried to use a
master-detail layout.
Speaking solely for myself, I have to confess I hadn't given it much
thought -- mea culpa. "Add" is fractionally easier to type than "New"
but if it's confusing I'll happily update my examples. Perhaps anyone
else with particular views on this could mail me off-list and it'll
help me see how widespread the problem is, and how uniform is the
opinion (this isn't to suggest I don't value Bill's perspective!).
