Well, i think that this code (logic) better to be placed into class
chain a subclass could initialize things in right order before calling
super initialize etc.
Because code which i seen in build..forCog (forgot the method) which
calls #initializeWithOptions: contains too much bells and whistles as
to me.

Thanks, i will check tomorrow if issues with initialization is gone.
