The "right" Qt header files

I use Visual Studio (VS2013 for the moment) for my development, but up until Sharkfest I hadn't done much GUI 
development.  Now that I've dipped my toe in the water, I'm paying more attention to the project organization done by 
VS.

Why is the "Header Files" folder under UI/qtui only contain Qt generated header files (that I rarely have to reference 
because they are generated).  In order to get the "real" header files, I have to search through the External 
Dependencies folder, which makes it much more unmanageable.  Is this just a CMake "feature"?  Is there something simple 
that can be done to either:
1. Create a new (virtual) folder for the "real" header files
2. Create a new (virtual) folder for the "Qt generated" header files (so the "real" ones can go in the Header Files 
folder.
3. While we're at it, create a (virtual) folder for the .ui files

I will gladly work on a patch if someone can point me in the right direction of places to modify.
