It is, and all the buttons work fine, but being new to MT I wasn't sure how
advisable it was to ignore warnings like this.

Funny you should say that, as this is exactly where I'm now at with trying
to use UIActionSheet in a more 'real world' scenario. I have

UITabBar -> UINavigationController -> UIViewController

and need to show a sheet in the UIViewController using ShowFromTabBar(), but
I'm not sure how to get a reference to the UITabBar which is in a different
XIB.
