I'd just like state, if there was any doubt, that project.el is a
fantastic and long-awaited addition to Emacs.  The design is generally
great and for one it enabled Eglot to integrate very well.  So I am
quite thankful to Dmitry and its maintainer.  The new project-wide
commands (project-find-file, project-switch-to-buffer,
project-kill-buffers) are really very useful, and I'm learning to use
them.  But this point of "which buffers belong to projects" seems off.
Not by a terrible lot, but definitely off the way it is.  This
discussion has revealed some of its flaws.  There's still time to adjust
the design before Emacs 29.
