I have a scenario, however, which would require the copy action to discern which tableView/MO was selected to determine which MO (and its associated data) to copy. The paste action would similarly need to be aware of what tableView was selected to determine the appropriate coarse of action.

Sounds like you need to subclass NSTableView and override -copy: and
-paste:. You might want to only do this once, and extend either the
data source or delegate protocol so that object can be responsible for
the custom logic.
