I know about cmd-double-click, and use it all the time, it’s great. But is there an easy way to make Xcode simply tell me the type of a symbol in a popup or similar without having to jump away from my current position in code?

option+click should get you there for standard documentation.
For user symbols, not sure. You could command+option+click to open the definition in an Assistant editor, in Xcode 4+.
