Johan,

plase allow me to pick out only a few points of your writing.

Why does not camelcase completion work? e.g. typeing “UIPV” should cause UIPickerView to be suggested.

Type "UIP" and you'll get the suggestion.

Why do I sometimes get two tabs instead of one? I find that I quite often have to press backspace on a new line because XCode inserted two tabs instead of one.

Auto-indentation ignores #if and the likes. If you have something like:

#if FOO
  with_foo_argument() {
#else
  without_foo_argument() {
#endif

you end up with two indentations. You can compensate with a

#if 0
  }
#endif


Is there a way to add a newline after the one I am currently positioned in the middle of?

Very often it's better to have fewer features so people don't get overwhelmed with featuritis. This is such a case, you can achieve the same with just a few strokes of the arrow keys (key down, key left).


Is there a way to auto indent a block of code that has become a bit messy?

Yes. Select the code in question, then look in the Format menu in the main menu bar.


Is there really no intelligent code generation built in?

The whole idea of the Cocoa-like ecosystem is to make code generation obsolete. If code can be generated automatically, why put it there at all?
