IIRC, this is expected behavior. Quirky, perhaps. What you probably want is
to apply the predicate also as a filter predicate. OTOH this should cause
the behavior you want

No, I think it has to do with object caching, but don 't quote me on that
;-)

Why not? NSArrayController responds to -fetchPredicate. Shouldn't be any
problem there. Just po [arraycontroller fetchPredicate].
