We hopefully will have a good-working custom-makefile part.
So if you really 
want to write all CMakeLists.txt by your own, as you propose
for 
the "advances projects", it wouldn't be a big
difference just using it as 
a "custom makefiles"-project within kdevelop,
would it?

The include-path resolver can already now get include-paths
from 
cmake-generated makefiles, so everything should work
acceptably for such a 
constellation.

If matt would implement a "cmake language-part"
you'd even get autocompletion 
for CMakeLists.txt in such a case, so you would have
everything you wish for!

greetings, David
