Summary0014057: Add GROUP_SOURCES property for targets
DescriptionIt would be nice if there was a property that automatically grouped target's soruce files on directory basis, similar to what source_group() does.

set_target_properties(foo PROPERTIES GROUP_SOURCES ON)
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationAt the moment this can be achieved with e.g. a macro like this:

function(group_target_sources target)
    get_target_property(sources ${target} SOURCES)
    foreach(file ${sources})
        get_filename_component(path "${file}" ABSOLUTE)
        get_filename_component(path "${path}" PATH)
        if(file MATCHES "${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}")
            file(RELATIVE_PATH path ${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR} "${path}")
        else()
            file(RELATIVE_PATH path ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR} "${path}")
        endif()
        string(REGEX REPLACE "/" "\\\\" win_path "${path}")
        source_group("${win_path}" REGULAR_EXPRESSION "${path}/[^/\\]+\\..*")
    endforeach()
endfunction()

(in fact this is what I use in personal projects)
