David,
I hate to break it to you, but along with the deprecation of the
Xcode based tools, comes the deprecation of D2JC (and also non-direct
to Java Client as well).
At least that's my understanding. I could be wrong about that. But,
I'm pretty certain that being able to create Java Client applications
with custom interfaces using Interface Builder has no future.

Just Works™ or I have a problem in my model somewhere. I don't ever
have to question if the problem is somewhere in the configuration
of the IDE or the numerous third-party plugins.
To me the reason WO-newbies would shy-away from WOLips is that they
are already trying to learn WO and Xcode does an excellent job of
just getting out of the way and letting you get an initial project
up and running quickly. With WOLips, you likely have to learn not
only WO, but you have to learn Eclipse's interface and jump through
all sorts of hoops like figuring out how to download and install
plugins and such before you can even start a project, and I don't
think anyone can say that the Eclipse UI is not intimidating when
you first get started. Xcode is not intimidating, it holds your
hand and asks you some questions and gives you a running WO
Application.
There is a much higher barrier to entry with WOLips (to my
perception) even if in the long run it is a far superior set of tools.

You can do this with Eclipse too. I can safely say I have never
tinkered with the build scripts in either XCode or Eclipse.
