If the concept is to control lots of devices at a time, then I would
hesitate to use the NSDocument architecture.  Instead, I'd use a
plugin architecture, where each device's code and interface is stored
in a separate bundle inside your bundle's PlugIns folder.  You can
then enumerate these for choosing to display certain interfaces.
