I never noticed that, but you're correct.  But I've never used
initWithWindow:, always initWithWindowNibName:.  Furthermore, I generally do
it the way Jeff does, so I can keep the nib name in the window controller's
implementation.  I always thought it was kind of silly to say "Initialize
Window Controller 'Jack' using 'Jack's nib'".  Jack should know his own nib.

Oh, that's a good idea!  As a matter of practice, I always run a Shell
Script Build Phase to rebuild my entire product package from scratch with
each build, instead of using Xcode's built-in "smarts".  It only takes a
second, and I always know what I got in there!
