There we go. To prime the search engines:
A guide to putting more than one NSDocument into a single NSWindow
(like the Windows MDI pattern -- useful in human interfaces like those
of Shark and Xcode) can be found at

It involves subclassing NSDocumentController and NSWindowController.
There's a singleton NSWindowController, and your NSDocument subclass
instance should claim it as it activates. There is much more to it;
read the article.
There's also an argument about an alternative method, involving one
NSWindow per NSDocument, and hiding/swapping each into the same
location, but that's not precisely on point.
