Yes, that approach is *so* much safer. When we switched over to doing it that way so many "dealloc called while object was being observed" problems went away.

I think, by using the word "through", Ken is suggesting you do this:
[self addObserver:self forKeyPath:@"representedObject.incomingNotes" ...];
rather than this:
[self.representedObject addObserver:self forKeyPath:@"incomingNotes" ...];
