What made me think it is a bug was actually only the fact that
instruments told me the object is always still alive and the

release it because of some caching techniques.
Whether or not caching is happening behind the scenes is an
implementation detail, not something that should need to be
specifically called out in the documentation if it's not germane to
the published behavior. Obviously there are cases where it's
specifically called out when there is a clear benefit. For example, +
[NSImage imageNamed:] maintains a cache for reusable images to
minimize the memory footprint and image load times.
