I then append a second attributed string to the first - with very similar attributes as the first. After this, when the row is selected, the system no longer reverses out the text color as it did previously.
Text drawing will only reverse the colors of text if the entire string is drawn in NSControlTextColor. (I've filed a Radar on this opaque, undocumented, uncustomizable behavior.)
I ran into similar stubbornness when trying to use a custom color for the title of an NSButton when it is disabled. My workaround, based on an answer I found on StackOverflow, was to override the cell's drawTitle:withFrame:inView: method.
.m: <https://github.com/aglee/appkido/blob/master/src/CustomViews/AKButtonCell.m>
.h: <https://github.com/aglee/appkido/blob/master/src/CustomViews/AKButtonCell.h>
Maybe the same technique would work for you. You'd have to figure out how to reverse the color yourself, but at least you'd have complete control over the string's appearance.
