Description
Today, xproj allows you to have named projects without paths - the project is found under the source root specifying in global.json.
We might be able to introduce a new project reference concept - that lets you specify just the name of the project/folder that you want to reference, and have it automatically resolve to a project within the project root. Maybe this is the thing that we opt into [transitive references](https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn-project-system/issues/199) by default?
