Hmm, the first thing I thought when I saw your kate project feature was that 
it should be implemented more like CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS. 

Otherwise there's a combinatorial explosion of extra generators. There would 
have to be a 'MinGW Makefiles - Kate Project - ExportCommands' generator 
etc.

I don't think 'extra generator' axis is a good extension vector for 
generation features.

Thanks,

Steve.
