Wait for 3.0 and don't do what Sam Streeper did in BackSpace to do
loadable code once you do get it.  Use NXBundles.  If you can load a
nib, you can use NXBundles.

NXBundles are like nibs, bit they can contain code, TIFFs, sounds, and
any number of nib files.  They are also localizable.  They are just as
easy to load as nibs and are easy to create as well.

major cool stuff.
