Xcode 3.0 file rename behavior

I want to vent about something. It seems that if a file is outside the project folder, the "Rename" in Xcode 3.0 does not actually change the file name on disk, just its display name in the project. I suppose I'm being "protected" from doing something bad, but I'm not sure what it is. IMO this was a very bad design change. Rename the .h for a class and you suddenly have 100 errors and have to switch to the Finder to see what's really going on. Xcode 2.x actually changed the file name on disk: it was simple, straightforward, and predictable. Change it back in Xcode 4.x..
