I've often wished CMake had a construct equivalent to Python's "if __name__ == '__main__' :" that would let you run certain code only if the current file was being run as the "top level" CMakeLists.txt. For example, my app Killbots is quite happy to be built as part of the KDEGames module. But to build it as a standalone app would require adding some setup and dependency checks to the CMake file. These are normally performed by the module level CMake file, so blindly including them in my app would lead to double checks the majority of the time.
