Maybe the solution is to just have files there? i.e. either CMakeLists.txt/*.pro or .kdev4 files

An extra step sounds a bit much, especially since often one doesn't remember if the .kdev4 file is there or not.

The previous change to the open project dialog broke the (important) option to open a directory as a project. This fixes that through introduction of an extra step: you select the method you want to open your project with first. This has the advantage of making it more clear to the user what the options are; many users are still not aware you can simply tell KDevelop to open a folder as a project.
