Yeah, that's on the project.el wish-list.

Also, it would be nice if some "project-centric" things like
compile-history, gdb command lines, and the tags buffer were made
per-project; and if desktop.el understood that and saved them as such.

For me TAGS in particular comes up quite a bit, as I often edit
different branches of GCC at the same time, and if I forget to switch
TAGS files I will occasionally editing the wrong copy of a file.

I haven't gotten around to experimenting with this stuff yet.  My
Emacs wish-list is pretty long and time is limited.  Adding useful IDE
features to Emacs is one of the bigger things on the list... I love
Emacs but recent experience with Eclipse has shown me some ways that
Emacs has fallen behind.
