Table view bug?

[David Chisnall]

Hi,

I'm seeing some odd behaviour with NSTableView.  My table column is editable 
and my delegate's -tableView:objectValueForTableColumn:row: returns a string.  
I can then click on the string and edit it and everything works as expected.  
If, however, the delegate returns either the empty string (@"") or nil, then it 
usually doesn't let me edit it.  When I double click, the field editor appears, 
but I can't type into it.  Sometimes it appears and I can type into it, but it 
loses the first character (or, sometimes, the first character that I type with 
shift pressed).

I've now worked around it by returning @" " when I want an empty, editable, 
field, but I'd appreciate it if someone who understands the NSTableView / 
NSCell code could take a look.

On an unrelated note, it's increasingly difficult to share nib/xib files with 
OS X, since we don't support the new format, and XCode defaults to using (the 
quite confusing) layout constraints mechanism instead of the comprehensible 
one, and so even with the new format we can't load xibs that use 
NSLayoutConstraint, which apparently uses this (LGPL) constraint solver:
