Michael: For BaseTools, we have no plan for such change. For Build directory, if it is the relative directory described at OUTPUT_DIRECTORY of DSC file, it will be in WORKSPACE. If it is the absolute directory in DSC file, it may be out of WORKSPACE.

Are there any intentions to change this? If we allow the BaseTools' makefiles to be run from somewhere else(like cmake /path/to/source) it could put both the BaseTools binaries and the Build/Conf directory in the current directory.
