1. Add an item to the main menu and launch a simple tool. For example add an item to he File Menu or one of it's submenus.

There is a script menu you can add commands to.

2. Add a node(s) in Groups and Files plus let it have it's own context menu(right click sub-menu).
3. Add my own view that may be activated based on my node's selection. Perhaps to add a editor for a specific type( i.e. super XML editor).

I don't think so.

4. Extend the preferences. For example, adding another type of SCM and options that are specific to the SCM in the preferences panel.

I know for a fact that the SCM API is private and there is no documented way to implement a new one.


5. How about just adding another language as a first class citizen!

You can do this with custom build rules, defined in the Rules tab in the project or target inspector.


In general, Xcode isn't meant to be extensible like this. You might want to look at Textmate, which is an editor not a full IDE, but is very extensible.
