No, there isn't any additional intervening of the views. Visually, the view 
based NSOutlineView is a super-thin wrapper around NSTableView to add 
indentation and a disclosure triangle. If it works in NSTableView, it will work 
in NSotulineView, and something else is likely wrong.

Things that would be useful to know:
1. How you are trying to show a popover. (i.e.: relevant code)
2. When you are doing it, and when is it not happening

What is the radar you logged for this?

NSTableView and NSOutlineView doesn't use a viewController.
