Now, there are cases where users have inadvertently changed the values for multiple rows of data when they did not intend to. How can I warn a user when they enter a texfield or nscombobox that they are about to edit multiple rows of data and gracefully give them a way to back out? I noticed that there is no way to discard editing when in a textfield. Is that the case? I am using the control: textShouldEndEditing: delegate method which allow me to get 90% of the way there, but the textfield retains focus, and I can not tab out of the field without getting my warning. Ideally, pressing "esc" should allow me to discard any editing and make the field lose focus.

IIRC you can set a delegate to the table view and implement tableView:shouldEditTableColumn:row:, and you should be able to prevent editing from even starting until the user has confirmed.
