Efficiency of dispatch in this context is largely irrelevant as it 
generally happens as a part of the user clicking a button or hitting a 
menu item -- i.e. once to trigger the event processing.

Given that action method validation already exists within the AppKit 
framework and it works at the only time where complete/correct 
validation is possible, why should we bother duplicating that 
functionality in the PyObjC module and doing so in a fashion that is 
going to generate false warnings?
