I agree, but remember that Apple's "secret sauce" is
not to be first but to be no earlier than second
*BUT* then release a product that is best-in-class.
That's why you see folks complaining that "Nokia had
smartphones years before the iPhone!" or that "Nokia
had touchscreen phones years before the iPhone!". Both
are true but now, neither matters one whit: Apple did
their own implementation and managed to get it much
more-correct than Nokia ever did, at least when
considered from the viewpoint of the average users
of the device.
So if this is Apple's answer to QtCreator or QML,
perhaps we should take this as "fair warning" and
that our system had better also be approachable by
mere mortals rather than just god-like programmers.
Which closes our conversational loop back to doc-
umentation and who should be the audience thereof...

Taking quick glance seems that they are trying to patent QtCreator and
QML, or at least many aspects of it ;)
