Just some random thoughts.
If the IDE project files are the same for most or all developers,
there's no reason not to include them in svn to ease a new developer
into the system. But this assumes that the project files are
relatively static.
But if project files are different for different styles of
development, they shouldn't be automatically included in svn.
An alternative might be to include the files under a different name
with instructions on how a developer can choose to activate them. Or
put the content of the files into the wiki or web page.

Not all the dependencies are set and so IntelliJ doesn't find them.
But I think that we're getting sidetracked from the real issue and
that is IntelliJ project setup is a very personal thing.
Having the project files in SVN is very convenient since changes to
the
project are automatically updated for everyone. There are multiple
committers who use IntelliJ and find these files convenient.
Convenient if everyone sets up their dev environment the same way,
which we don't. Things like code style sheets can easily be set up
and made available in the developer's notes on our site.

Yeah, I know that can be done. The files are customized for the
way
that a few people work and do not work out of the box.

Why don't you just put it in ignore list with SVN?

Why can't I remove them?
