Bindings questions on "ToDos" sample code.

I am currently looking through the code "ToDos" from http://homepage.mac.com/mmalc/CocoaExamples/controllers.html

Am I correct on the following observations:

The only purpose of "Category" is to link the popups text to its numeric value. That "Category" actually refers to Priority.

All my data fields are defined in my "ToDos" NSArrayController (in MyDocument.nib) and otherwise is defined nowhere in my code (other than its associated array being used whole for storage/retreval and each record in whole being accessed through MyDocument).

If I am correct in my data fields being defined in my "ToDos" NSArrayController how does it know what data type(s) to store and what is it actually storing?

If I can figure this out my next step will be to convert this example to use XML for its storage. To do that I assume I will not be able to use this model of only defining my data fields in my .nib file.

So far I have been working with bindings for less than a week, it looks promising, however the real question is where I can get some of whatever you people are smoking who actually understand it?

I have worked through more than half a dozen examples and read everything on the sight, started to convert sections of my code over (successfully), I thought I was starting to get a handle on it until I came across this example.
