Blend uses the Visual Studio *.proj file as the interface so that if either Visual Studio or Blend make changes to either a XAML or it's code behind file, the other one knows that a change has happened and can reload the changed files.

That *is* the MSBuild file.

Maybe I'm being too persnickety but in the vernacular of both MSBuild and Visual Studio they are referred to as "Project" files. For instance if you have a C# Visual Studio project named foo, you can build the project with the command line "MSBuild foo.sln". If you rename or delete the foo.csproj file and try to build with that same command line, MSBuild will complain with the error message "MSBUILD : error MSB1009: Project file does not exist."
