Hi Jc:

Thanks very much for those informative references.  Developers like me
who maintain a number of long-standing CMake-based build systems, have
to pick and choose which of the newly developed CMake ideas we
incorporate in those old build systems.  However, this idea appears to
be a good candidate for such incorporation, and your references look
like they will make that task pretty straightforward.
