Huh? "Remember that you have to set this property to nil before you
release the object" would already be sufficient...

By the way, I still don't know whether setting the delegate to nil
before release is a general rule or does it only apply to NSTableView?
Should I also set my button delegates to nil before the buttons are
released?
