However, something isn't right when I ask for each menu item's modifiers. Our Edit menu has Select All, which is command-a. Another menu to the right of it has an item whose equiv is command-shift-a. Everything's hunky dory with those. Then we go to add the new menu, which also uses command-a. We first find the Select All menu which uses the same equiv, so we remove it. But then it also find the other item which uses command-shift-a. Here's the code that looks for matching equivs:

Shifted key equivalents which use letter keys are usually represented with capital letters, not NSShiftKeyMask.  You're using a case-insensitive match, so you're catching those.  Use a case-sensitive match and you should be fine.
