Well, IMHO "remove file/folder" should do different things on
target-files/build-folders than on other files/folders. On the latter it
should ask for real filesystem deletion, on the former there should be a
checkbox in the dialog to not only remove from project but also from
filesystem.

Hmm, not sure how you want that one to work. i.e. should all files be
considered part of the project until the user blacklists them (with an
option to delete it) or should only files that the user adds explicitly
to the project be considered part of the project...
