Maybe I wasn't clear about the local file. Of course, I shouldn't care 
if the project was remote or not, and if the file I'm writing on is 
*exactly* the project file or a local copy of it.

What I meant all above with the local file is the file that is not 
shared by developers. Do we still have this concept? I mean, in 
KDevelop3 and Quanta3 there is the project file and a project session 
file (yeah, this is a better name). Theoretically the project file 
contains only information that are relevant for all developers, while 
the session file is specific for the current developer. Propertis IMO 
can go in both files, as they might be shearable or not. 
So is such a session file now in KDevelop4? If not, I'd say we need to 
introduce one.
