I have a document-based app in which I'm trying to bind the state of NSMenuItems to values in my document's window controller. For example, in the window's nib file, I have a checkbox bound to File's Owner/autoscaleX. I'd like the menu item to have the same functionality as that check box and to display the status for whichever window is currently selected.

Since File's Owner is NSApplication in MainMenu.nib I get an exception when I try to bind to autoscaleX. I tried adding an autoscaleX action to FirstResponder and binding to that, but I still get the exception.

I also tried not binding the menu item and just setting its action to FirstResponder's autoscaleX action, but the menu item remains disabled.

I'm sure there's an easy Cocoa way to do this, but I haven't been able to dig it up in the docs or my searches.
