Is there a reason that setting `DOTNET_SDK "Microsoft.NET.Sdk"` causes the CMakeLists.txt file to not show up in the generate project? It is convenient simply for quickly navigating to the file and for it to get picked up automatically in VS find in all files, but it seems that it is not present when I use SDK projects.

Sounds like a bug to me. Could you please file [a new one](https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/new) with a small reproducer example?
