multiple project confusion?

Am I the only one who is confused by this behavior? Before I file a feature request, I wonder what other people think.

My app loads a plugin. In order to debug the plugin, I have to have both projects open. I build both as Debug and run. Everything works fine except that I'm in the app project and the source for the plugin shows up in that window. Then I switch from the Debug view to the Project view but I'm in the wrong project. Thinking about it, I realize it goes further to the behavior of opening non-project files inside the project window.

Thinking about this more, I realize (and this must get old but) that I want Eclipse style behavior. It makes sense to show the source code for the plugin in the Debugger window but it's not a great place to do code editing so I switch to the Project view but now I'm in the wrong project even though I'm looking at the source. So if I build (because the title bar indicates the name of the file and then the project so I overlook it) then I build the wrong thing.

I'm not even sure now what I want (Objective-C editor, debugger, and compiler for Eclipse?) but I can't find a good configuration for XCode. I use the All-in-One config. I think I'm looking for a discussion. Maybe I'm using XCode wrong. I've been using this stuff since ProjectBuilder in WebObjects 4 so I feel like I'm familiar with it but I just can't find a comfortable place. I have felt for a long time that XCode doesn't know what it wants to be and that's still how it feels. How do you all use XCode? Which config works best for you?

Any thoughts?
Marc
