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 ?
