Hi Jc,

as Marco I also like it.

I think CTK_BUILD_ALL is fine, it is consistent with the other 
CTK_BUILD_* variables.

Advanced or regular is both fine for me.

CTK_BUILD_ALL_LIBRARIES, CTK_BUILD_ALL_PLUGINS, CTK_BUILD_ALL_APPS could 
also be handy (as advanced variables). If I am changing something in 
CTKPluginFramework, I could just enable CTK_BUILD_ALL_PLUGINS to check 
that every plugin still compiles and than switch it OFF again.
