I'd ask for the additional feature to classify sources into folders
too - this project that I'm doing used to be a lot of little
libraries, for which putting them in solution folders to group them up
was a good idea, but when I migrated to a more monolithic approach, I
put the sources still into project folders.

I haven't seen a way to sepcify either a project or source file folder
for building visual studio projects.

I see now. I was not aware of solution folders. Sorry for the noise.

 I'm not sure what you are looking for, actually,

 If you want each project to be in a different folder, CMake creates a
 different project (thus a folder) each time you use
 add_library/add_executable.

 If you are looking to further split the sources in a project, take a
 look at source_group.

It's a grouping of projects in the solution explorer. At the top level
you can have folders (called solution folders) instead of all projects
dumped into a single view.
