SUMMARY
Finding project definition files (like CMake files) can be like looking for a
needle in a haystack when you forget about the quick open widget (or that gives
a large number of hits too, e.g. when you have several projects open).

Opening for instance the CMake file in attica's src directory requires
scrolling down quite a bit because the file is listed amidst source files and
case-insensitive sorting is used.

It could be useful if either
- the project manager could be switched to case-sensitive sorting (this would
have to be a user choice I think)
- project definition files were listed first in their directory; CMakeLists.txt
files for CMake projects, *.pro/*.pri files for QMake etc.

Personally I don't like how certain IDEs provide a supposedly functional
overview of a project, sorting implementation, definition and other resources
in separate categories (aka virtual folders) but that could be a solution too.
