Well, given they (i.e., NeXT — far as I know, the document's as old as that)
bothered to write the “WebObjects File Format Reference” at all, I presume they
presumed one might need to create/edit those files manually. Which position I
happened to find myself, for the old EOModeler is sorta at the dead side, and
alas, since I have found Eclipse very seriously lacking when compared with
Xcode, I had to write one of my own (https://github.com/jvanek/EOModeler-OSX
<https://github.com/jvanek/EOModeler-OSX>).

Ha! Thanks a lot: the possibility to test how any particular qualifier might
look like is the second best thing after a perfect documentation :D
All the best,
