1. Open a project from a file manager.
2. I don't like the idea to hide files from the user. We might hide in 
the project view, but doing so on a general level is bad. At least this 
is my opinion, and yes, I always enable "show hidden files" on every 
platform I work. I want to know what files are on my hard disk.

No, I mean that having that as a default is wrong, especially if it is 
possible to achieve the same reason even now.

In this case maybe simply preference, see above.
