Build 3.4m1

I couldn't find an easy way to modify an existing linked folder target location.
The simplest workaround was to delete/create it again, which isn't super happy when this used to be a source folder (i.e. you need to add it back again on the classpath manually after).

Alternatively, I tweaked the project description to change the path of the linked folder, but this feels like editing manually the .classpath file (i.e. something evil you shouldn't be doing).

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
