[CMake] Inherit problem with MSVC views

[Tal Blum]

I have a large project with more than 2 different views. For example one
view just runs the project in many languages (each language has its own
libraries and configurations) another project trains all the models that are
used in the first solution.

Why do you need the different views (solution files)? Maybe it can be
restructured in a different way.
