We might be miscommunicating again. This is what I meant:

I'm not expecting you to develop it but perhaps in the future there will be a
project.el-based backend that, instead if looking up the tree for the
.git dir, looks for Makefiles. And perhaps in the future it might even parse
them and collect, say, targets. If "project target" is a concept ever added
to  project.el (not saying it should, but it could), then

   (project-targets (current-project))

could return some interesting info for that backend. And I would consider
restructuring my project if that could enable some tools that use
`project-targets`.
