Yes, Joseph. And that's the reason why projects were introduced in Grid Engine some 15 years ago ;-) (even before it was called Grid Engine).
You don't really need projects otherwise. All other things you might want to do with projects can be accomplished via user lists or the accounting string. Projects are really there for the share-tree and functional policies. And thus it's good practice to *not* use projects for anything else than these policies or else you might be in trouble if turning on those policies and requiring projects for them.
