Yes, it is impossible. Those bindings are two-way. (Not all are, but those are.) Thus, when the bound-to property changes, so does the view's selection. Now, how would this work if the view's selection were bound to two different properties? What if those properties were inconsistent with each other? Out of curiosity, which two objects were you binding to? That may suggest a design problem. Or do you mean two properties of the same object? Usually, a view binding is bound to a property of a controller. If you want the controller to present the selection in two different ways, you can define one property to be computed from another property. You make a getter which doesn't consult a dedicated instance variable, but rather consults the other property. Then, you implement +keyPathsForValuesAffecting<Key> with <Key> being the capitalized name of the computed property and have it return a set including the name of the stored property. Then, clients of the controller can consult or observe either property, whichever is more convenient, and they will get the correct value.
