Yeah - it sounds unrealistic for any other company but Apple is not at all shy of ignoring and finally dumping products that don't do great for their bottom line.
Either Xcode on Windows/Linux OR Web IDE - iOS App Development may be offered as a service. You develop on the web and submit code to Apple's server farm where specialized devices compile/deploy/run it and send it to your device to test it - maximum control for Apple. But I think that's a little too sophisticated - so might be a while!
