You could post a feature request, but I don’t think it will get much attention:

I don´t have an answer, but i always use the “Specify output destination” setting in AME so all renders land in the same folder. By doing that i always know where they are. In AME, go to Edit > Preferences to change that. Not an answer, but maybe some kind of solution.

I did a test and it seems that the exports from Ae will end up in that specifyed folder as well, so if you want them to end up in different project folders everytime this may not be so ideal.
