Wouldn't holding project files in an ext partition fix this? Or is that not supported yet?

Keep in mind that Linux filesystems are all implemented in the kernel (FUSE aside), and WSL doesn't run a Linux kernel - it just emulates syscalls for userland to work. So there's no ext drivers in there, or any other standard Linux FS drivers.

The way to really fix it would be a filesystem on a loopback device that stays inside linux territory, but that's not supported yet.
