Sob. I only wish that, when I'd read this very section several times, I hadn't thought "no that's not the problem I'm seeing, reckon I've got a live one" :-/ I've just put an update on bug 7677425, so that they know to mark it as a duplicate etc. As it happens, it turns out I didn't need custom accessors anyway and can do everything I need via KVO, but I couldn't see what I was doing wrong, so presumed I was misunderstanding it (a common cause, you'll be surprised to hear). Thanks folks, Ken Tail between his legs again... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
