Yes it could but it is not a user-friendly solution, since the macro
   1) Does not prevent the creation of CMakeCache.txt nor CMakeFiles dir.
   2) Tell the user that he should remove those himself
       (and rely on git to do so).

Thus the feature request:

Even Brad found it could be "cool":

May be somebody will find time to craft some patch for that...
