Which is why I wasn't posting on the devel ML.

?! This is about *using* KDevelop, not any other IDE that happens to use CMake instead of spinning its own project configuration cum build approach. Where else would I post about this and possibly get feedback from fellow users? You are not the only user on this list so please don't tell other users what they should or should not find interesting; just disregard posts that don't concern you. Everyone else apparently does (including me).
But whatever, I wasn't exactly planning to keep sharing to the void anyway.

Neither budget nor space for that - and ninja's supposed performance advantages have never been apparent to me (it's just less flexible in practice).
