Project file outside of project's root #37

Hi. I've find Project Maker interesting in automating project creation. However, it lacks one feature I strongly require. I save my sublime projects in distinct directory. Most of my projects (but not all) are stored in ~/Projects, and .sublime-project files are stored in ~/Projects/.sublime. This idea has two advantages:

  1. Since project file not in project's root it does not require to be ignored in version control (moreover, different developers can use different editors/IDE, so project file is better to be stored outside of project's root).
  2. I can list all my sublime projects, no matter where they are, by just ls ~/Projects/.sublime. As I said, most projects are in ~/Projects, but some of them in ~/node_modules, since I work with Node.js much.

So, it would be great to have ability to store .sublime-project separately somehow. By the way, most other stuff is good. File templating and variables are interesting ideas.
