The Carbon Pasteboard has built in support for multiple items. The NSPasteboard approximates this feature in some cases with special "multiple item" flavors like NSFilenamesPboardType and NSFilesPromisePboardType.

Are there any other flavors like that?

Is there no toll-free bridging between PasteboardRef and NSPasteboard?

I want to be able to drag multiple images between my NSTableViews, where each row represents an image. It sounds like I'd have to somehow bypass the usual NSTableView drag and drop interface and use the Carbon D&D API instead. That doesn't sound fun.

I suppose an alternative is to combine all the images into one chunk of data, and then separate them out again when dropping. I'd rather not resort to a custom data format, though.
