One thing about Mozilla that annoys me no end, is the fact that there isn't one single tutorial on how to create a standalone application using the Mozilla framework. I don't mean extensions using XUL. I mean the whole thing: write your business logic in C++ inside XPCOM, write your UI using XUL and glue the two together with Javascript.
Basically I want something that allows me, from the comfort of my own, to start a project similar to Nvu or Komodo.

You hit the nail on the head. It's the very thing we are working to improve. XULRunner is part of the equation. Its goal is to make it easier to create applications using XUL and XPCOM. Of course, it's not enough without decent documentation.

All in good time ;-)
