Project local variables are just a way to set buffer local variables via 
EDE.  So yes, they are.

Yes, I agree, that would be nice.  Also need to make sure users don't 
have to save some .ede file into their project directories.

There are several ideas for making things more responsive.  The one that 
affect me was having all those symbols in Emacs memory.  Being able to 
offload those into a file, and query as needed would save a lot.  If you 
have a zillion includes in each file however, not much to do about that.

I like the refactor idea floated above, but in the meantime, there are 
several other options.  ;)
