Problem Title:
Foundation F1.5: HDL source files must reside in Foundation project directory


Problem Description:
Urgency: standard

General Description:
When HDL source files are added to a Foundation project, they are also copied to the Foundation project directory. Even if these source files originally resided in some other directory on the drive, a copy will still be made in the Foundation project directory, AND any edits made to the files in Foundation will be made to the local copy in the Foundation project directory.


Solution 1:

There is no way to "add" the HDL source files to the Foundation project, yet have the working files still reside in a location other than the Foundation project
directory. The working copy of the files will always reside in the Foundation
project directory.
