what I need is a simple bit of code that tests this behaviour on Cocoa
and the result it produces. I think it could be as simple as creating
the cell, setting the formatter, assigning the object value and then
reporting the object value. If the reported object value is different
from the one used to set it (using NSLog on both of them), this is
enough proof.

Sorry, for being so pedantic, but the behaviour really looks strang to
me. Being a developer myself it is not what I would expect :-)
