I think it should definitely be made configurable. 
I much prefer the notion of the 'currently active' directory.

I have many files open, in many directories. Often the current file 
(rtl/vcl/fcl whatever files, opened with ctrl-enter on a unit name) 
will be in the wrong directory, which is not part of the project.
