At the end of the day it looks like my expertise isn't needed here.  
The problem rather seems to be a space leak in the nib loading code,  
which seems to retain the owner of the nib file. To make testing a  
bit simpler I've attached a hopefully faithful translation of Ink's  
Document.gorm into a nib file with Apple's InterfaceBuilder. When I  
use that nib file instead of Document.gorm, Ink does not release the  
document when its window is closed. The window itself and its window  
controller are released correctly.
