No, this isn't relevant.  When a window is controlled by a window controller, 
releasedWhenClosed has no effect.  See the docs.

I suspect he's thinking of oneShot or maybe backingType, but this is misguided, 
too.

Dave, if you want to fully release a window and window controller, just 
clear/release all strong references you have to them.  If you feel like it, you 
can call -close on the window controller first or something like that, but it's 
not necessary.

Then, to create a new pair just, um, create a new pair.  Instantiate a new 
window controller and have it load its window NIB when its window is requested, 
etc.

In other words, what exactly is the mystery here?

Regards,
Ken
