Tabbing PDF Annotation Editor between annotations in "edit mode"?

Dear Cocoa-dev People,

I've been tangling with this question most of the morning and was hoping for some guidance on how to proceed.

I want to modify the PDF Annotation Editor so that it will tab from annotation-to-annotation in "edit mode," just like it does in "test mode."

What is the key to accomplishing this?  Is there something simple I've overlooked?

I'm thinking that I'll need to build something like a keyView chain (responder chain), procedurally, on a per-annotation basis.

And since PDFAnnotation isn't an NSView subclass, I'll have to create a mechanism that "hears" tab events and then updates the current annotation "by hand."

Since this approach is a bit complicated, I wanted to ask the group for confirmation first, lest I proceed down a rabbit hole.

Yours sincerely,
Joel
