What about we continue as we are doing these days? We all polish and fix what 
we can and no one gets the idea to push some fancy new stuff in. I personally 
think that in the past weeks not a single new feature was implemented. All 
these things were just polishing of existing features. A tooltip here or a 
context menu there is - to me - not really something we should forbid during 
the sprint.

Imo the GenericManager is only generic by name and the files it supports, not 
in it's Class architecture. Esp. the hoops it jumps to support remote files is 
something CMake should not bother with. Extract the features you need and put 
them into the BaseClass or a Utility, but don't make CMake extend the 
GenericManager (imo).
