Well, the title for these will either be 'all','none' or 'mixed' or the
attribute name. While I like the modal list display or choices, the
scope of options is leading me towards an IB (ctrl/click) centric
property sheet; they are smaller, can be moved and sized.
These movable windows/sheets also don't appear to require subclassing
aside from the cells they use so I might start to creating a mock-up. I
think it should be straight forward, based on the 'HUD' (heads up
display?) window style; maybe there's a sample someplace ?
