Nope.

I'm still using the old struts method and I think this is all set up correctly.

In the end I solved this by subclassing the table view, then override mouseDown
and hit test the text fields to see if one was clicked on. The result works
really well, though it does require/assume knowledge of the view hierarchy,
which I don't like so much. But for a fixed internal UI element, it's fine.
The code snippet is below in case it helps anyone else with this problem.

// we need to override this to restore sensible behaviour of clicking on text
fields.
- (void)mouseDown:(NSEvent *)theEvent
{
[super mouseDown:theEvent];
// Get the row on which the user clicked
NSPoint localPoint = [self convertPoint:theEvent.locationInWindow
fromView:nil];
NSInteger row = [self rowAtPoint:localPoint];
// If the user didn't click on a row, we're done
if (row < 0) {
return;
}
// Get the view clicked on
NSTableCellView *view = [self viewAtColumn:0 row:row makeIfNecessary:NO];
// get container view, which should be the only subview
view = [view subviews][0];
if (view) {
// get subview at this location
NSPoint point = [view convertPoint:[theEvent locationInWindow]
fromView:nil];
NSView *v = [view hitTest:point];
if ([v isKindOfClass:[NSTextField class]]) {
NSTextField *tf = (NSTextField*)v;
if (tf.isEditable) {
[[view window] makeFirstResponder:tf];
}
}
}
}
