I generally agree with Geertjan that the idea of project is a grouping of
more than one file, but I'm intrigued why you feel you need the project
infrastructure, rather than just opening the file, to support what you're
trying to do?  Can you elaborate the use case a bit more?

There's probably a way you can create a fake project inside a memory file
system that's created when your file is opened - I'm doing something not
entirely dissimilar to that.  Although you'd have to create your own
project opening action too I guess.

Best wishes,

Neil
