I think you have this a bit backwards, possibly.

You still have to get notified when the first responder changes in order to tell your info panel to reorganise itself, so why not use that notification to directly obtain the correct target? Objects that can be displayed by your info panel will send a notification that they have become active, sending themselves as the notifier. The info panel receives that notification and so already has the desired target. It then just needs to check what protocols or methods the notifier responds to and set up its UI accordingly.

It's really not that simple in this case, and the architecture is basically out of my hands. I'm "watching" first responder changes by listening to NSApplicationDidUpdateNotification, FWIW.
