Interface Builder doesn't generate code, it writes out a serialized

at least *expect* to be able to use FileMerge on n/xib files.
Comparing and merging files is a core activity for developers, and I
think that you are right to expect it to work for all of the basic
file formats used for developing apps for our platforms.
I fail to see an compelling reason why it couldn't be an graph
representation that supports 3rd party tool or even manual manipulation.
Basically it is an tree (simple enough in XML) with cross-references
to other nodes / objects (might be a lot simpler to manipulate with a
xpath-like representations).
