Could you please explain how this would break the OpenStep specification 
more than any other change that would change the behaviour in the way 
you want, e.g. your own patch? This is a real question, I may just have 
a blind spot here.
And why is it more elegant to change the setFont: and setTitle: method 
not to change the cell type than the setImage one? I seem to totally 
miss your argument. I am really not saying that one way is a lot better 
than the other one, but if you think so (and your mail suggests this), 
you should at least provide some argument for it. We should try to find 
the best solution, not just the one somebody like best for undisclosed 
reasons.
