Hmmmm, CodeWarrior pretty much achieves what you call not feasible. In
all my years with CW, I never had to specify any parameters to any
command line anythings. (fancy pragmas were needed sometimes, yes.) So
I have to agree with Bryan. IMNSHO, the fact that XCode is built on top
of command line tools is the source of almost all its problems. If it
were not the case, the UI would have to be better thought out, because
Apple could never say to itself "we'll just let the user specify the
arguments to gcc here".
