One of our most asked for features is the ability to navigate to any file in the file system for read/write purposes. We therefore request the following enhancements to the File menu: 1. Add an Open File menu item, where the file can be anywhere in the file system and not necessarily part of a project 2. Change the Save As menu item to optionally save in any part of the directory structure, not just the project's directory. We also require a programmatic interface to implement the above functionality, and in which the file resource does not belong to any project. One way to achieve this is to provide a special project where it and its contents can be made hidden. All the contents of this "project" are by reference.
Moving to Core for comment.
I would argue against defining a special project notion for this feature. An interesting question is can we just open and edit the file directly, without requiring a project at all? (This would make it a non-core solution)
Customer to develop scenarios and do initial prototype.
