Re: Unused imports and @link javadoc

Thanks Oliver,

Found bug report:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=397078&aid=652303&group_id=29721

And javadoc FAQ explaining that referenced class "must be referenced
by a declaration or any kind of import statement":
http://java.sun.com/j2se/javadoc/faq/index.html#missinglinks

IMO proper solution would be to fix "Unused imports" check. Current
workaround is to reference class using full class path and not just by
name.

Regards,
Stevo.
