That's a good point. It's annoying that they change all the time
though. On very large XIBs, this would dramatically increase the
size of an SCM repository. I hope I don't get into a situation where
I merge a XIB file from another branch.
This might be worth filing a feature request for. I imagine nibs
*could* be implemented such that objects are assigned an unchanging id
that's only used by IB when reading and writing the nib file.
