I have several nibs, each with a file owner object.  I would like each file
owner object to contain an outlet to a single object contained in yet
another nib.  However, Interface builder does not seem to allow me
to connect an outlet of an object in one nib to an object in another
nib.  The only solution I can think of is to forget Interface Builder
and simply use a global id variable to represent the outlet object.
But I would much prefer to have Interface Builder support such a design.
Does anyone have any suggestions how it might?

Thanks.
