Build Identifier: M20100211-1343

When configuring 'Java Build Path' for a project, user is given opportunity to attach javadoc and src folder/archive to a library. In terms of path, most JARs are in close proximity to their associated source and documentation. Consequently, the "Source Attachment Configuration" and "Javadoc Location Selection" dialogs should default to the container directory of the active JAR.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open 'Properties' dialog for a project.
2. Select "Java Build Path" tree node.
3. Select 'Libraries' tab.
4. If no JARs exist, add one.
5. Expand JAR's tree node.
6. Select 'Source attachment' or 'Javadoc location' node.
7. Click 'Edit' button.
8. Click 'Browse' button.

It works for the external source location but not for Workspace locations and not for Javadoc.
