Hi Yuri, while exploring awakeAfterUsingCoder: to do similar things with nested storyboards I came across this gist. The KVO for the storyboard was the piece I was missing for my implementation. I'd like to leverage that idea in my own open source code and give you credit for the idea. Is that acceptable to you?
