Don't know why you're having trouble with #0...

For #1, this is fairly easy.  Set an NSPopUpButtonCell as the dataCell
of the NSTableColumn you want the popup in.  For your dataSource, the
objectValue for that column should be an NSNumber that is the selected
item index for the popup.

For #2, you can create controls programmatically.  The typical
constructor for a control takes a frame rectangle as its argument.  You
then need to add the control into a view hierarchy using addSubview().
