Yeah, every time numberOfIconsInFileView:, fileView:URLAtIndex:, or 
fileView:subtitleAtIndex: is called the array is recreated, which sucks.  
Caching ordered URLs in BibItem was a band-aid that helped a little, as did 
using non-retaining CF collections, but I think the document needs a separate 
object to maintain the relationship and count.  I tried using a CFDictionary 
with BibItem keys and an array of BDSKFileViewObjects as values, but it didn't 
help.
