Is there any particular reasoning why for a shared library project the

be placed there as well.
I end up having to copy the .dll output with a post-build step, which
works but is complete a waste of time and just makes the cmake file
more complex for what seems like a very simple case.

I've had to add custom post-build rules for this issue before too.
Other users I know of in the OSG project have resorted to trickery with
the PREFIX target option to try to work around this problem.
I've filed this as bug #5805 (feature request) in the bugtracker.
Implementing this modification for the Visual Studio generators is
trivial (I did it two weeks ago by coincidence when I came across this
issue yet again). I had a look at the Makefile and Makefile generators
that same day though and nearly had a stroke :). Provided someone could
give me some pointers as to where to start I probably could add the
support for this.
