Version: 31.1 Hi Spencer,

Several users have asked me for a command which is just find-file, but starting from the project root. In large projects, where project-files is expensive, this will have substantially better performance than project-find-file. Also, it allows opening files which aren't included in project-files without paying the further cost of running project--files-in-directory (which is what happens when passing INCLUDE-ALL=t to project-find-file). Also, it may help with user confusion about why project-find-file doesn't behave like find-file. (which I've encountered a few times) This command is equivalent to C-x p o C-x C-f, but it's nice to be able to bind it to a specific key. Overall, this is easy enough to provide, so let's just do that.
Makes sense, thanks, pushed to master (adding the 'interactive' form and a NEWS entry).
The name is a little verbose - if anybody has a better idea later, they're welcome to suggest it, there is some time to do a change.
