Curious if you will be rolling out updates to the CMake files to support the new usage requirements features? If you are not familiar, I recently wrote up a small overview at http://www.gamedev.net/page/resources/_/technical/general-programming/cross-platform-test-driven-development-environment-using-cmake-part-5-r3182 (http://www.gamedev.net/page/resources/_/technical/general-programming/cross-platform-test-driven-development-environment-using-cmake-part-5-r3182), it pretty much negates about 75% of the first four articles but is 'sooooooo' worth the transition effort. Mostly the transition is removing a bunch of things in favor of the massive simplifications now possible.
Not sure how you feel about putting in a minimum CMake version dependency? Seems like it should be a no brainer, but there may be reasons to avoid CMake version dependencies I am not aware of.
BTW: Yes, totally willing to help out on this. Would just need to have an expedited method of getting build questions answered..

I've tested this when I switched to Qt5, and yes this is really a significant improvement.
You should create a task in the tracker, so that I can schedule it for a future revision. If we can keep the old setup in parallel to the new one then it can be added soon, in a future minor revision; if we have to break compatibility then it will have to wait for SFML 3.
