Apple has not made this easy, despite the fact that this new Resume feature causes binary incompatibility with several applications.

In my case, I made a wrapper around NSDocument's addWindowController: that adds this:

		NSWindow* window = [inControllerToAdd window];
		if ([window respondsToSelector:@selector(setRestorationClass:)] &&
			[window respondsToSelector:@selector(setRestorable:)] &&
			[window respondsToSelector:@selector(invalidateRestorableState)])
		{
			[window setRestorationClass:Nil];
			[window setRestorable:NO];
			[window invalidateRestorableState];
		}
