Not drawing NSTableView rows as selected?

I'm trying to make a list of controls, kind of like you see in Apple's Mail, in the Prefs>Rules window.

In Apple's Mail, when you edit a field, or push a button, the row is not selected. I also want to do the same thing.

Currently, I'm using NSTableView. This will select the row containing the control that I click on. I don't want it to be drawn selected. I tried disallowing selections, but unfortunately this actually disallowed clicking on the buttons and fields!

Am I meant to be using NSMatrix instead? Also, must I generate the controls programmatically? I kind of like NSTableView's data source approach, and the fact that NSTableView is responsible for displaying all managing all the lists of controls. Also my code is already set up to be done with data sources.

I've never used an NSMatrix before, and so I'm not sure if NSMatrix will be able to do what I want.

I think that if NSMatrix was "the right way" to do this, but NSTableView could be subclassed to not hilite selected rows, I'd rather keep the NSTableView, because almost everything works as I want and it's only one small change I need.
