Have you looked to see whether NSOpenPanel or NSBrowser would be appropriate? Developing your own interface for what appears to be a common task looks unnecessary on the face of it. Users will prefer the familiar standard interfaces where possible, and even if you have some special usage in mind, they can be customised to a worthwhile extent before a "roll your own" approach becomes the best course of action.
