Have you tried merging a JSON file? XML is a shit ton easier. I can't see this as a good thing.

If they get rid of the need to list every single file you won't have the huge number of merge conflicts that CSProj files currently produce.

And msbuild will no longer work.

I agree with you though - its a PITA.

I assume they'll be updating MSBuild to work with the new format.
