I was just looking at the documentation for NSApplication and wondering if 
overriding sendEvent is the way to go?  I was thinking I could monitor events 
dispatched to my app and then, when one arrives that is not destined for the 
child window, dismiss the popover.  I can also dismiss the popover if the 
application loses focus.

I haven't tried these ideas out yet, but will do so later on today.  If you 
know these ideas will not work or you have alternates, please feel free speak 
up.
