    I wasn't talking about a window controller.  He mentioned other
controllers which I assumed might be instantiated as part of the nib. (I
have many).  I had just run into a similar situation a few days ago where I
realized that "init" wasn't called for a controller within the nib, so I
simply offered that in case it was applicable to his situation.
