I share some of your pain, I use VS and Xcode on a regular basis, and
there are features about it's text editor that I really wish Xcode had
(and vice versa...)
Xcode doesn't really have a back/forward for edits within a single
file, but you can use bookmarks to emulate this: Place a bookmark with
cmd-d; and to quickly (ie. without the mouse) move between bookmarks,
switch focus to the bookmarks smart group with shift-cmd-m, select the
bookmark with the arrow keys, and then return focus to the document
with shift-tab (if you use tab, you have to go through the search
field in the toolbar and the pane above the editor).
Filing an enhancement request at <http://bugreport.apple.com/> about
this particular feature would be a good idea.
Phil
