NSData returns YES on Fail?

Subject: NSData returns YES on Fail?

I'm using NSData's writeToURL method to write to a potentially protected file. When I try to write to some place I don't have permission (like /etc/httpd/httpd.conf) NSData returns YES (which is returned as the result of NSDocument's writeToURL:ofType:error:) even though it should fail, and yet somehow the document presents the permissions error sheet.

What's going on?

- (BOOL)writeToURL:(NSURL *)absoluteURL ofType:(NSString *)docType error:(NSError **)outError { BOOL result; NSData * data;

...

result = [data writeToURL:absoluteURL options:NSAtomicWrite error:outError];

    // result is always YES

    return result;
}
