Sure, but koko asked how he could tell an NSSegmentedCell to draw its
image and its text. It's apparent that the authors of NSSegmentedCell
did not implement this, because why implement something that the HIG
authors are going to discourage people from using anyway?
Images-and-text on segmented cells can look atrocious. It can look
like Windows. It can look like someone feels like disrespecting
platform conventions. But sometimes violating the HIG is precisely the
right thing to do. That's why they're called guidelines.
Taking offense at the HIG and equating it to "asking Steve Jobs for
permission" exposes a lack of appreciation for what convention brings
to the table.
