It is (forced by backwards compatibility requirements) by design.

Here is the source code where I wanted to assign it to the
CMakePredefinedTargetsFolder:

#if 0
      // Can't activate this code because we want ALL_BUILD
      // selected as the default "startup project" when first
      // opened in Visual Studio... And if it's nested in a
      // folder, then that doesn't happen.
      //
      // Organize in the "predefined targets" folder:
      //
      if (this->UseFolderProperty())
        {
        allBuild->SetProperty("FOLDER", this->GetPredefinedTargetsFolder());
        }
#endif


Sorry,
David
