If anyone is using Xcode for Gecko development could you try the patches in the 
bug above and add feedback? 
Run with:
mach build-backend -b xcode

It should compile (but not link) and provide the usual IDE editing features:
- full navigation: files/functions/callers etc.,
- full code completion,
- predictive compilation errors/warnings

Current issues:
- The project is missing many of the 3rd party libs; I plan to fix that at some 
point
- It compiles a duplicate set of object files to mach; no plans to fix that
- Doesn't link; no plans to address that, admittedly switching to the command 
line to `mach build` the real binaries may confuse new users.
- Only has built-in debugging target for `firefox` main process -as opposed to 
also having one for `plugin-container`- and this may confuse new users.
