Works like a champ!  The behavior was just what I expected, too:  I 
created a
test app containing an NSTableView, told the NSTableView that File's 
Owner
(MyDocument) was its dataSource and ran.  Result:  A warning message 
about the
  methods which the dataSource must implement.

I added definitions for those methods, didn't bother to declare 
MyDocument a
subclass of NSTableDataSource, and ran again.  Result: No warnings, just
a properly functioning app.  I didn't even have to hunt through the 
Cocoa docs or
the PyObjC sources for names of relevant informal protocols.

In short, this is a /really/ nice improvement.  Thank you.
