Agreed, but Xcode is a pro-app, not an iApp [*], so the design goal
has to be flexibility rather than convenience - and with flexibility,
also complexity.

That said, I would like to see some sort of "iCode" development tool.
Something really simple, intended to be used only for building Cocoa
+ObjC based applications / bundles with minimum fuss and maximum
convenience. I don't know. Perhaps it's a bad idea. Perhaps
developers are inherently pro-users, and in no need of an entry level
tool.

I would say that the phenomenal success of Lightspeed Pascal and C (and Turbo Pascal on the PC) back in the day suggest otherwise. Those environments had a lot in common with what you're suggesting. Of course, they were also hundreds of dollars cheaper than the "Pro apps" of the day... That's a little hard to accomplish these days, since Xcode is free. :-)
