how does this work for rosapps and other such optional inclusions?

Hi reactos developers.
As many of you know, the cmake branch development is going along and is the
occasion of many innovations in the way reactos is built.
One of this way is the reactos.dff file. Currently, it is a static file,
meaning that each time you want to add a module to reactos, you have to edit
this file. What I propose is to create this file dynamically, when parsing
the build system file. Adding a reactos module twould then be as simple as
(!) creating a new build file for this module.
For those who are concerned about slipstreaming or optional files like
wallpapers or whatever hacking they do with the current reactos.dff, it will
be as easy as before. There will be a file to edit, which will be the
"static" part of it. Whatever you'll write in this file will be written
back
to reactos.dff, so there is no need to worry about that.
What do you think?
Regards.
Jérôme.
PS : The patch is there. It waits for your approval :-)
