In the Java Build Path properties dialog, there's a "Add external JARs" button
but no corresponding "Add external Folders" button, which seems like the natural
way to add an external directory of classes to your build path.

I can't remember anymore whether JDT core supports this. Moving to JDT core for 
comment.

This isn't supported, see 8655 for further explanation.
