While it is uncommon, I wouldn't call it oddball. I would call it a secret weapon, and one that uses many of the exact same concepts as iOS, so developing end-to-end enterprise mobile solutions is much, much easier.
Find someone with Java experience and interest in iOS and you've got yourself a ready-to-train WebObjects developer.

Those crazy kids. You don't need a resume when people are constantly calling you and offering you jobs! Do they get on the most crowded bus too? Love driving only during rush hour? Pick the longest line in the grocery store?
Being a WebObjects developer is like having the HOV lanes open just for your Maserati and having your groceries magically appear in your refrigerator. Sure, you've still got to cook some, but you didn't have to battle half the people in town to get home to dinner.*
