BuildOptions still use DataSystems; it should use BuildTargetOutputFolder to specify the output directory.
Scheduling for 4.0 - the deprecation must be removed, IMHO.
I agree, the DataFolder is not very good. I am going to replace it by URL, the URL seems to be better than ProjectMember or FileObject. It can be directly bridged to the BuildTargetOutputFolder and it supports creation of folder on demand and finally supports the special URL types with configurations.
Fixed. As described above.
