Yes, but the Finder icon view isn't totally comparable with a replacement for 
IKImageBrowserView. Finder icons can be arranged willy nilly - they don't need 
to be in organized rows and columns the way standard NSCollectionViews are. So 
it makes sense that Finder doesn't do it that way, although it *is* totally 
annoying that it doesn't even when you've auto-arranged them into perfect rows 
and columns.
