Well, I have things working the way I want them, but I'm not entirely sure why. After doing more research and looking into the TableSearch example, I found that it appeared they did exactly what I did in Case 2 of my original post, except including a UISearchBar as well. I repeated essentially what I did in Case 2, and this time it worked. I obviously did something different, but I'm not entirely sure what (and no, I did not use a UITableViewController anywhere).
Since I don't really have the time to keep repeatedly trying this over and over to find out what I did different, my test project instantly got promoted to a production project and I will deal with what was different the next time I need a search bar and table view together again.
