So, this method presently causes a bunch of crashes and unhappiness, and by comparison, 11 extra delegate lines seem alright.

Do you mean VisibleSelection? I think that that would cause the inverse issue on macs; what is presently directional would be non-directional, and vice versa, in this specific case.
