Per Keith's original e-mail, the plan is to add native support for unified build in WebKit Xcode projects, not relying on CMake in any way.

I have a separate question about the unified build plan though. Are we clear on how it will work with using declarations and directives in the global scope of .cpp and .mm files? We use these a lot, all over the place.
