Just about 1 hour ago I stumbled upon the same problem. You don't need to code anything. I could do this in Interface Builder:

• Add the KeyEquivalent for the CMD key to your "Edit" menu (don't know, if this is really needed, I just copied the structure from another project)
• Add the KeyEquivalents to these menu items (CMD + X and so on)
• Link the FirstResponder's cut:, copy: and paste: functions to your corresponding menu items

That worked for me. Unfortunately this (default) behavior doesn't seem to work when you hide the "Edit" menu (just tried it).
