Should it ever be possible for there to be a mismatch between -viewWillAppear: 
and -viewDidDisappear:? I suppose it is possible, since the docs say the Appear 
methods aren't called in a popover in some circumstances (which I think is 
really bad).

Certainly sometimes +viewWillAppear:+ or +viewWillDisappear:+ arrives without the corresponding 
+viewDidAppear:+ or +viewDidDisappear:+. I filed a bug on this a couple of years ago and was told 
that this was working as expected: nothing in the contract guarantees that "will" will be 
followed by "did", they told me, though I tried to argue that the contract is right there 
in the name. As you say, it's really bad; please, please file a bug. The guy giving the WWDC videos 
on this topic a frighteningly cavalier attitude about this; he seems impervious to any 
understanding of the fact that we need coherent reliable order and sequence for these events. m.
