Very soon my carefully set up set of tabs become a total mess: several tabs with the same file in the wrong set ups. Of course, it's because of *my* failure to switch context the correct way. But the least that can be said is that Xcode will *not* help you there.

OK maybe. perhaps.
I tried to set it up for my "Console" context. I named a tab "console" defined the correct behavior for it, and it worked. Then I wanted to close my project, and naturally, I clicked the close box of my console window. Big mistake. Not only it didn't close my project (since it still had its main window behind), but it destroyed my carefully setup console window. I briefly hoped that after actually closing the project, both my window would be revived by opening the project again. I should have known better.
I haven't touched behaviors since that poor initial experience. So I am ready to concede that I didn't invest enough time in it. Maybe using behavior I can make Xcode 4 context aware the same way that the much simpler Xcode 3 scheme allowed.
