I have an NSButton which, when clicked, rotates through several related settings for the UI. I have also attached a Contextual Menu to the button so that users can Control-Click and quickly go to their preferred option without having to rotate through all of them.

Why don't you just use a regular popup button? It's kind of odd to have a button that switches through more than two states, and it may not be obvious to your users how to click it to get the popup without switching states (or the other way round).

I think you're doing this too much like a programmer. If you really think this is necessary, make sure you perform end-user testing. -- Cheers, M.
