This is feature request.

Add support for .gitignore like project treeview items exclusion.

Although I know there is possibility to exclude items from the project tree
view, I see it as a bit not practical for even a bit larger projects (I can
provide examples on demand) as it require too much attention from the user.

First I was thinking to ask to support .gitignore itself, but this does not
have the same business requirement base.

What about to have the same syntax as .gitignore (easy to parse and interpret)
and just add these patterns to already existing project exclusion list of
items.

Minimal use case:
- User will create .kdevignore and will populate it by its own patterns
- User will open/import CMake project and the files will be automatically
ignored.
- User still can add new excluded items which will be stored the same way as
today (in the project file).

By the way, as I am new to KDE, is there any other more suitable place to
discuss feature requests, ideas?
(I did try KDE forum but it looks a bit less crowded.)
