Odd-Even backgrounds for NSTableView

A very common way of displaying table data is to alternate the
background colors of every other row, for example, even rows might have
a light blue background and odd rows might have white.

This is easy enough to implement - I can think of a few ways of doing
it, with the first thought that came to my mind was to use the
tableView:willDisplayCell:forTableColumn:row: delegate notification to
set the background color.

...but it seems like there must be a setting for this somewhere since
it is such a commonly used table feature. I can't seem to find anything
in the doc or headers to indicate that this functionality is already
built in.
