A custom macro or two could clean the files up quite nicely.

All of my coworkers use Visual Studio 2005, and it properly indicates when 
project files need to be reloaded.  In fact, it is quite an annoyance when 
you have dozens of project files that are modified by CMake, and you have to 
manually say "Yes" to reloading each and every one of them.  Of course, this 
is no fault of CMake, as its job is to simply generate the project files.  I 
would like to see Visual Studio handle reloading project files a little more 
eloquently.

This sounds to me like a specific setting on your Visual Studio install.  I 
believe that there is a setting in Visual Studio that can ignore externally 
modified files or automatically reload them.  Perhaps you are unknowingly 
using this setting.
