If we store everything in one variable (via string concatenation) I

Maybe we can only change to current exact match of the generator
name
to a "startsWith" and let the global generator class decide if the
generator name is valid?
Yes, something like that in cmake::CreateGlobalGenerator will work.
It will be nice to get rid of the platform-varied generator classes.
The reference documentation we generate explicitly lists all names
with the platforms right now. That will have to be refactored to
list the platformless names with a note about where to specify the
platform name. Then we need a per-generator list of platform names
along with a note that one specifies "Win32" by leaving the platform
name off.
I found some time to work on this again. I only refectored the cmake in
a first step. If the commits at
https://gitorious.org/~paroga/cmake/parogas-cmake/commits/factory or a
similar solution gets merged, I'll refector the Visual Studio Generators
and then add support for the WinCE platform.
