In the absence of further information, it seems that a tab view is wrong approach here. If all the so-called tabs are identical in user interface terms (that is, the only difference is the data they retrieve from your data model), you'd probably do better with a single set of the controls and a segmented control to choose which set of data values to use.
I simplified a little. I have a grid of 16 NSTabViews each of which have at least 4 tabs. I need to display all of this data simultaneously on one screen.
If you must use a tab view, you could also approach it with a view xib and a view controller to define the common part of each tab. The view controller would act as an intermediary to pass the action methods on to the correct controller. (The details, and feasibility, of this approach might depend on exactly what class of controllers you're trying to use.)
That sounds interesting but will involve a near complete overhaul. Wagner: the text editor approach sounds ideal for now.
