That do***entation applies if you're writing a Mac OS X application that 
uses WebKit for some or all of its UI.  Cocoa Application, or 
do***ent-based application, or whatever, is a decision that depends on 
what the application does.  The Objective-C objects that can then be 
used from JavaScript are whatever is in your application that's 
appropriate to the WebKit ****tion of the app.

Are you looking to write a plugin that would work in Safari?  That 
sounds like it might be what you mean but it's not clear.
