It would certainly be easier if you used a dictionary controller 
(which you would use in place of the Flickr Photo
List array controller).
You can look at <http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/DictionaryController/index.html

If you have to target Tiger, then you can in (likely in your own 
custom class, or a subclass of an array controller) observe the Flickr 
Photo List's selection (e.g. selectedObjects) and as that changes get 
the values for the selected key from the selection in the original 
array controller and set the values as the content for the values 
array controller.
I hope that makes sense?
