Plus the project files themselves.

AFAIK, there is currently work being done on also showing files included 
by project files (something like "functions.js" that you will probably

Well... I'm not sure. The property is called "files", not "sourceFiles". 
So having e.g. a group called "packaging stuff" or whatever it is does 
not seem wrong or weird to me.
