But you've given me the idea that I could always show the contents of the
selected file in the accessory view, and adorn it with a warning when the
contents include a conflict. That might be the way to go.
I'd definitely recommend Edward's accessory view suggestion in favor
of the nested sheets. There are various ways (colors, different
shapes and item positions, a short one-time-animation) you can use to
make it obvious to your users that something important changed in the
accessory view.
Showing the contents in the accessory view for non-conflicting items
might not be that smart, though, because it makes it harder for users
to notice that something changed down there. If a text "Conflict:" in
bold pops up in there *and* a text field listing the contents and how
they conflict, that's a much larger (visual) change and thus harder
to miss than if it's just a small red "conflict!" text field.
