I'd disagree.  I'd say that the proper way to do this is to implement
a custom NSCell subclass (a la ImageAndTextCell).  This is more in
line with the framework: the cell is given an object value, which the
cell represents by drawing into a view.  That object value happens to
have two valid representations: an image and a textual label.
Therefore the cell should draw those two representations.
