It's Xcode btw...

We're going to continue to see a complete impasse in these  
discussions...

On one side of the fence we have:
- the people who care about Java, compiling, coding... essentially  
programming/design tasks

On the other side of the fence we have:
- people who don't care so much about programming -- but getting  
stuff done simply via gui-driven tools.

It seems never the twain shall meet in this particular thread...
