Maybe/probably CodeBlocks supports this when using native project files, i.e. 
not project files for already existing makefiles (this is what cmake 
generates).
The way it is now (project files + makefiles) is an order of magnitude less 
implementation and maintainance work than a native C::B generator.

But if somebody steps up, implements one and maintains it (i.e. makes sure all 
tests always succeed), I don't see a reason why such a generator would not be 
accepted and replace the current one.
