   Well, this patch is just a very first step. I'm planning to add some others down on the road, I just would like it to be visible from the start, to be able to talk this through as a process not just one big change.
   @JaroslavTulach Unfortunately my direction is not that far reaching. Having general project with natures seems to be a compelling idea, though that would be a big step to jump. I'm not sure if I can make that jump happen. Though if anyone could deliver that, I would happily ditch this set of patches in favor of that. So I'm not trying to reaching that high.
   So my plan is to try something built on the current ProjectFactory2 and ProjectManager.Result. My steps would be:
   1. Enhance the PM API to be able to query/load Project "natures" recongnized by the IDE.
   1. Improve the isProject2 usage to actually return project type
   1. Add an Open Project As action if more than one project "nature" is detected on a folder.
   1. Fix: There could be some glitches around re-opening the projects.
   1. Probably add more UI entry for the project "nature" selection
   
   I have something half working on 3., but need to do some real work on 2.
