I believe that you are frustrated but venting here is not going to help you address them.
It will only discourage people from trying to hold out a helping hand.
Perhaps try to be more detached and more analytical and describe your issues scientifically?
For example I have no idea what you mean when you say "bouncing scroll views" or
"turning all this garbage off".
For sure asking Jesus to help is always a good thing to do (unless you are using His name in vain.)
BTW I am only registered as a freebie user developer. It's always been sufficient for my needs.
Nevertheless if we can be more specific and calm, then possibly we can find the answers.
So let's start with these queries:
(0) You installed Lion on an SSD partition. Are you at 10.7.3?
(1) Have you altered or added anything (other than Xcode) to the standard install?
(2) How did you install Xcode? App store? Download dmg from developer site?
(3) Are you at Xcode 4.3.2? It fixed a multitude of sins.
(4) Being iOS only should not to make a difference to Xcode behaviour except for iOS projects.
I do not do iOS projects at this time - mine are desktop/database/games and kernel exotica.
(5) Although I don't do iOS the Component downloads are available for me to install although I haven't tried.
Are the MacOS ones available for you? (See Preferences Downloads and select Components tab)
(6) But the Documentation for iOS is available to me and downloaded. How about your MacOS documentation?
Is it available for download? (see preferences Documentation tab)
(7) I don't use Safari. I use Firefox 11.0 so can't help you there.
Meanwhile peace be with you….

FYI, these bouncing scrollviews in Lion suck more than the dialogs and alerts that pop open in your face.
Since I'm only registered as an iOS developer, I don't have access to the Mac OS dev info. Are these UIScrollViews or is there an NSScrollView on the Mac OS?
I really want to turn this "view contents separating from the edges of its view" off and burn it off and weld it shut.
Safari window contents wobble around when I'm trying to scroll with the magic mouse and it's horribly distracting.
This behavior has no place outside of an iOS device with a small screen. For Apple to give us no way to turn this off is a slap in the face. Especially after having the OS out for 9 months.
Thanks Peter. I appreciate the help.

Yes. Just tried it with the windows hidden (i.e projects still open).
It also works with the projects closed.

Thank you Peter.
In that situation, were you able to command tabb to Xcode or were you prevented from doing that?
