Any particular reason you'd want to do that? Do you want to bind this 
command to `C-x C-f` instead of `find-file`?

I've always figured we need the existing binding for a lot of cases 
anyway: it's often faster than project-find-file, and it's easier to use 
to create a file in the current directory (or nearby). There could be no 
current project (project-find-file will then ask you to choose one, and 
that's a nuisance).

And having the REQUIRE-MATCH behavior is nice to avoid typos.

That said, if you can describe the desired behavior, I could live with a 
user option. Bonus points for submitting a patch.
