Sorry, I missed that; I noticed the @"1" but not the url on the next  
line.

I think it treats it like an id, because the following don't give  
warnings:
	[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:@"test"];

Also, this gives warnings:
	[@"something" setObject:@"object" forKey:@"key"];
but, they are stating that there are multiple setObject:forKey: and it  
doesn't know which one I intend; indicative of an an id.

I agree, the compile needs to know what this is, but it doesn't seem  
to.  Maybe someone was lazy in the compiler definitions?
