In the nib, I've explicitly set the delegate of Window (does this 
represent the app?) to ZopeEditController. If I wanted to "Belt & 
Suspenders" it, where would I set the setDelegate_() method? In 
ZopeEditController's init() method? or in __main__.py somewhere?

Corrected - I had a quick offline discussion with b.bum a while ago 
about reconciling ObjC longish method names with some of the 
traditional python style conventions :)
