Heh, thanks.
I also wrote a bug to Apple saying I should be able to do this in IB.

I can't set it in IB (my controller is contained in a UINavigationController, which is embedded in another custom controller). I can't set the tint bar directly when the root navigation controller is embedded in its container, and I can't set it via the contained controller in its viewDidLoad.
