Yep.  If Apple insists that we do things their way, they should either
build it into the System or provide code for it.  A thing that comes to
mind is the discussion about the "Save Changes" dialog in Inside Mac 6.
If they want the buttons exactly 13.00000000 pixels from the border and
so on, why not whip up a small sample code note with the dialog
resources for us?  I'd be much more willing to conform if canned code
were already available.  Same thing for their font sizing dialog on page
2-34.
