John,
you can see it this way: With the @optional directive you tell the compiler not
to complain if those methods are missing in your class implementing the
protocol, still the class which invokes those optional methods has to ensure
that those are implemented.
Protocols cannot decide or change behaviour of an object. Instead, it is up to
the object in question to adopt the protocol appropriately. Declaring methods
as @optional just means that you have a choice whether to implement or not.
Anyone wanting to call the method should first check if its

There is no 1 to 1 match between Cocoa and Carbon window groups. In Cocoa you
