This subclass of NSActionCell contains the majority of the functionality of a button control. NSButtonCell, like most NSCell subclasses, is responsible for the appearance of the NSButton control; NSButton serves more as a view for NSButtonCell to draw in, and most of NSButton's API is forwarded to NSButtonCell.
