Hmm might be. Hopefully this can translate to all Jars you import in a 
project. It sure would be nice when installing a corresponding -devel 
rpm, all this is done for the user. It's kind of an awesome little thing 
to Open declaration on an element in Classpath, see the source, and not 
have to muck around attaching src.zip to jars first.
