It's not being worked on. I didn't get that far in my refactoring.

If you want to work on it, you can create the cmState::Target and store 
target names in cmState instead of cmTarget (making cmTarget take a 
cmState::Target in order to implement cmTarget::GetName() of course).

Then implementing a global property to get the list of target names is easy.

Thanks,

Steve.
