CODECOMPOSER: Misleading warning when importing projectspec - "Already exist! Ignoring..."

Part Number: CODECOMPOSER

I have a project defined in a projectspec file, where the bulk part of the code is in a few foldres that i include in the project by linking to the folders. using a tag like this:

<file action="link" targetDirectory="Src" targetName="Common" path="COMMONS_SRC_ROOT" createVirtualFolders="true"/>

Inside this folder I have a single file that I want to mark "excluded from build", I do this 

            <file action="link" targetDirectory="Src/Common/Tools/test" path="COMMONS_SRC_ROOT/Tools/test/DebugLog_tests.c" excludeFromBuild="true"/>

And this works.

But when importing the project in CSS ig am geeted with this dialog

The reason I claim this to be misleading is that says "Ignoring!", but when i look in the created project, the file is excluded from build.

 So my question here is

1. Why is this a warning in the first place, there is no conflict in the references?
   I would see it as a warning if I tried to copy a file to a exsisting virtual folder or similar, but not here.
2. If you keep this as a warning, will you change it to be less misleading?
   I assume the "ignore" claim comes from the your code that wants to create the link, but the code that sets the attribute just runs with no warning. Creating this misleading warning.
3. Is there any other way to mark the file marked as excluded in the projectspec file. Except for creating links to every single file?

I use CCS 12.80, if this is fixed in Theia, let me know. It would be an argument to upgrade the team.
