[cmake-developers] Extending XCode scheme generation support

Hello All,

I recently noticed that 3.9.1 added the ability for the XCode generator to
also generate scheme files.  This is great as we have been post processing
generator output to add schemes according to our standards, but are
discovering various issues with this approach.

However, the current scheme generation appears to lack a couple of
abilities we would require to replace our custom scripts.  Primarily, we
need more flexibility over what goes in a particular scheme's launch
configuration.

I have searched the lists and google to try to find discussions on the
intended direction of this feature, but could not find any.

If I were to be able to contribute to this, would there be some sort of
guidance available around how best to expose additional configurability to
a user?  My immediate thoughts are just that we would need to define/use
additional target properties, but is there any sort of recommended naming
convention/scheme or structure that is already existing for mapping sets of
properties in to the more structured format of scheme xml files.

Thanks,
Steven
