In my experience, binding menu bar items just isn't worth it. Use -
validateMenu… or -validateUserInterfaceItem: to conditionally enable
the menu and give it a good title. Otherwise you've got to manually
keep track of the main window etc. yourself which is a waste of your
time.

On a main menu item, I've set a delegate which implements -
menuNeedsUpdate:. In this method, I enable/disable some items and
also modify some item titles based on current conditions.
With some items, however, instead of sending -setTitle: in -
menuNeedsUpdate:, I had bound their 'title' in Interface Builder.
But I just discovered that this 'title' binding was causing
setEnabled:NO sent to these items during -menuNeedsUpdate: to be
ignored. A menu item with a 'title' bound is always enabled.
The fix is obvious -- don't bind any titles, set all titles in
menuNeedsUpdate:.
But ain't this a bug? (Mac OS 10.5.6)
