I explained about dozen of times that "directories determined to be java 
roots" is a heuristic function and so the result must be reviewed and 
confirmed correct by the user. In addition, not all directories that 
contain .java file are necessary or wanted as a Java Root. E.g. a scrapdir.

The limited understanding of how differently is a project files root 
treated from a java root (or a web root, for example) creeps up every 
time we get to adding stuff to a project.
