Summary: Failing to load a .gorm which uses a NSImageView custom class in a
NSScrollView
Original Submission: This only occurs when the application is using
NSWindowController and uses a NSScrollView which contains an instance of a custom
class (specifically a subclass of NSImageView). I have been unable to recreate this
under any other circumstance.
I don't believe this to be a Gorm issue since the Gorm file loads and saves find and
upon inspection doesn't appear to have any problems.

The root cause is that the app in question makes calls that manipulate the view
hierarchy from -drawRect:. It removes the NSScroller subviews of the NSScrollView.
This confuses the display machinery which still tries to make calls to the
NSScroller:s that are now outside the view hierarchy, and this causes the exception.
Recovery from the exception fails because the gorm-loading code is releasing all
connections twice, leading to memory corruption and, usually, a segfault. I've fixed
this part in cvs.
As I see it, view manipulation from inside the display machinery (including
-drawRect:) is not allowed, and changing the view hierarchy is definately an error.
Thus, I consider this an application error.
Since this was pretty obscure and took a bit of work to track down, I'll try to get
some asserts in place to catch view hierarchy manipulation during displaying earlier.

Tried this with all other types of containers and it works fine. I can only
reproduce this with NSScrollView. I have tried this with another application and I
cannot reproduce this. The only time it appears is when the application is document
based app.
