Feature SonarQube Binding Configuration in Multi-Project setup

[chthoms]

It is currently not possible to configure a separate SonarQube Binding for multiple projects in intellij in an "easy" way.

In order to achieve this, each maven-module must override the SonarQube binding, this is not desirable for a project with a lot maven-modules. It is not sufficient to overwrite the parent maven-module or only a single maven-module. (Shift+Alt+S -> Tools -> SonarLint -> Project Settings)

It would be nice if overwriting the SonarQube binding can be configured automatically.

Note: The SonarQube Binding requires a default binding, so assuming a setup up with 2 Projects: ProjA, ProjB ProjA should configure and use the default binding. ProjB should configure the overwriting of the binding for each module.

If a third project ProjC is added, it should be configurable the same way as ProjB.

When configuring module-overrides in the SonarLint-plugin these settings are persisted in the modules .iml-file with the key SonarLintModuleSettings. Would it be enough to just commit this file into your versioning system if you want to share these module overrides with other people?
According to the IntelliJ-Documentation the .iml-files are meant to be shared in the new directory-based project format: https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/206544839-How-to-manage-projects-under-Version-Control-Systems

If sharing .iml files is fine, this will work, thanks.

It might work but it would be still annoying to define a module override for every single module. I've opened an issue/feature suggestion here: https://community.sonarsource.com/t/workspace-inherited-binding-override-support-for-intellij/
