This is a nice initiative, and the patch you sent seems to handle most 
of the technical issues.

There's one thing, though: some of these buffers might only start to be 
project-related, but then "relate" to some different project a little 
after. Buffers such as Dired, Shell and Eshell.

For the rest, this probably makes sense. I do wish we had an "upvote" 
button on these threads, to see how many people are interested in this.

Anyone would like to +1?
