You can currently only bind to File's Owner, Shared User Defaults, and
NS*Controller instances.  Other bindings you must establish
programmatically.

If Dot is your model class, then you should almost certainly add an
NSObjectController to your interface and bind to that instead.  They
you can set the 'content' of the controller to the Dot instance.  You
will also, then, avoid having to establish the binding
programmatically.
