Project references: how to do it correctly?

It must have been documented somewhere and it has been certainly discussed on this list, but I can't get it to work.
I have separate projects for 2 frameworks and 2 plug-ins which should be packaged inside my app bundle. Everything works, but I'm getting tired of having 5 projects open simultaneously. I'd prefer to combine all of them in one larger project. So I take my app project and start trying to 'import' other projects' files into it. This is where I am lost. I have found several ways to do something like it, but none of them seem satisfactory or even correct.
a) With my app project open I press Cmd-Option-A, select every file I need belonging to another project and add them literally one by one. Cons: I always forget something and I have to create a new target from scratch, carefully reproducing the imported project target's settings (because I don't actually import the project or any targets - just files).
b) With my app project open I press Cmd-Option-A, select another project's folder and add it as a _reference_. Cons: I can't access the imported project's targets.
c) I press Cmd-Option-A, select another project's folder and add it creating groups for each folder. Same as b)
d) I open two projects and drag 'subproject' target to my app project. Cons: the source project is left without targets (is it a bug?), I can't access the imported target's files. However, I can edit the imported target directly.
e) I press Cmd-Option-A and select another project's file (*.xcode). Pros: I can open that project by double-clicking its icon in my app project. Cons: it isn't very much different from what I have now.

Can anybody, please, be so kind as to provide the detailed steps on adding one project to another so that I could access both the subproject's target settings and its files from _one_ project window? Is this supported at all?
Thanks in advance.
Konstantin.
