I think the plan here with cocoa is to abstract the platform specific code and controls being used and rendered for each platform. Also, I know almost nothing about apple but it seems mac is rapidly depreciating carbon in their newer products. I do believe for current and past mac incarnations, abstracting this part of livecode would also make providing native controls for any platform fairly easy.
