I thought it might make sense for unit tests, but something else generally 
introduces a requirement for a macro when creating unit tests anyway:

 https://gitorious.org/grantlee/grantlee/source/c1b0fd62007c46856a86c45b0098ed37ee24fa42:templates/tests/CMakeLists.txt#L80

I think in that use-case, 

 add_executable(${testname}.cpp)

gives no particular advantage.

As for everything else, thanks for your comments and feel free to propose 
individual changes to cmake where it seems appropriate.

Thanks,

Steve.
