I don't think you have to do [weak self] in the enumeration block, as it's basically an @noescape block. That is, self is captured, but the call is blocked, and the closure is released immediately after the enumeration is complete, thus avoiding the retain cycle. Or am I missing something?

good catch! I think you're right, [weak self] doesn't seem to be required in this case. I think that self isn't even captured in this case because noescape guarantees that you the block won't be run async either.

In processEditing(), does it matter if the call to super is at the beginning of the function rather than at the end ?
