When I started working with Xcode last November I was planning to jot down every one of my frustrations and make a blog post just like the OP did. However, I decided against it... must be old age sneaking up on me. I do have one additional point: Xcode's code completion abilities are underwhelming. Emacs does a better job with hippie-expand IMHO. For code completion I do not know how Xcode compares to the much hailed Visual Studio (I have no experience with it) but compared to Emacs + Slime + Common Lisp it is awful.

For C++ and Objective-C XCode absolutely smokes Emacs with regards to code completion. True AST based code completion aware of all of your constructs without hacks and kludges like ctags and the like...

  The Emacs code completion I use hooks Clang, which is the same thing XCode does.

  Xcode doesn't feel very aware of my constructs since there's so much crap in the completion list. It's not totally useless but could be much better.
