This point also annoy me little, especially because I'm using svn and bzr
plugin that are not being called when moving files from the build project,
but you get used to it easily (you just have to rename and move files in the
original). Having the automatic completion working out-of-the-box is worth
this little bug.

I guess the build button is disabled because there are no configurations
(you're not in a managed project), but if you want a shortcut to build your
project, just hit ctrl-B
