[Qt-creator] The great idea for Qt Creator

[Tobias Hunger]

Hi there,

the idea of "Projects" is to visualize the project structure as seen
by the build system you use. I think we need that structure visible
somewhere, as developers need to interact with the build system rather
regularly:-) In qmake there is a clear separation between Sources,
Headers, Resources, UI files, etc., so that needs to be visible in
"Projects" when working with qmake projects. Other build systems have
different project trees, reflecting how those see the world they are
building.

There is a long-standing bug open to add a view that is more geared
towards project navigation. IMHO that needs to be something different
from "Project" though.

Recently the filesystem view made steps into the direction of becoming
more navigation friendly and is rather well suited for that task
nowadays -- if you like to navigate based on files and directory
structure that is. If that is not what you want, then we need to talk
about adding something else.

Best Regards,
Tobias
