Summary:
Adding Build Phases is harder in Xcode 5. The old options are no longer available leaving a buggy menu system.

The menu options to add Build Phases will remain "grayed out" if the developer does not have focus directly on the Build Phases tab. Miss clicking on whitespace in the Project Navigator, Utility Panel, Target List, or other panels in Xcode make it impossible to add a "Run Script Build Phase" 

The workaround is to select the whitespace underneath Build Phases to regain focus.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click on Project in the Project Navigator.
2. Click on a Target
3. Click on Build Settings
4. Go to menu Editor -> Add Build Phase -> Add Run Script Build Phase

(grayed out)

1. Click on Target
2. Click on Build Phases
3. Click on whitespace below Target list
4. Go to menu Editor -> Add Build Phase -> Add Run Script Build Phase

(grayed out)

Non-obvious Workaround:
1. Click on Target
2. Click on Build Phases
3. Click on whitespace below Build Phases to regain focus
4. Go to menu Editor -> Add Build Phase -> Add Run Script Build Phase

(not grayed out)

Expected Results:
The Add Build Phases should be visible when focus isn't on the Build Phases tab. I should be able to add a build phase anytime I have selected my target.

Actual Results:
The options to add a Build Phase form the menu on Xcode 5 are grayed out if the "Build Phases" tab losses focus.

This creates buggy behavior for a developer who accidentally clicks elsewhere in Xcode or a different window.
