Interesting thought.

The current EDE integration is pretty basic (only project-root, 
basically), but it can be extended fairly quickly, if an EDE project 
contains relevant data.

But that doesn't seem to be the case: it seems to me that EDE uses the 
same "one directory tree" model for the contents of the project. And the 
:include-path and :system-include-path keys we see in the definition 
examples are about code analysis (where to find external type and 
function definitions), and not about describing the main bulk of the 
files belonging to the project.
