There are two general cases:

1. The file output is only linked with the project (e.g. *.h or *.rc file
generating a *.res file).
    Here only relink is needed, no recompiling.

2. The file output is just put into the target directory (e.g. program
configuration file).
    This file should be only copied, no building action should be preformed.

As a solution I suggest to make "Add output to link" checkbox forcing a #1
behaviour and add "External file" or "Not cause rebuild" checkbox for #2 one.

It will be also useful to make it easy to mark file for just copying to target
directory.
