Just reading your last line and letting you know why that wouldn't work for testing purposes: Another weird thing is that even if my subclass implementations of -[drawTextInRect] and -[drawRect] are completely empty (not even a call to super), the textfield's text is drawn.

if you don't call super it's more like overriding a method and providing a custom implementation - a method does nothing in such case altering the default behavior. There is no reason for compiler to "optimize" a code by removing an empty methods implementation in subclasses for such cases. Disclaimer: I didn't vote down :)
