Because now I have to make some UI for picking these things, and then  
I have to parameterize build.xml.  And then Sources folder, in  
particular, is actually set in the classpath settings in Eclipse, so  
now I have to figure out how to reconcile those two values, because  
they're going to get out of sync.  Not to mention "a couple of  
preferences" is in THIS case -- there are thousands of features inside  
of WOLips.  For every single one there's someone out there who would  
like "a couple preferences."  Like I said.  If you want to change  
these values, there are means to do so, but I'm not supporting it.

I have no idea how anything in maven builds work.  I look to maven  
users to make recommendations.  But I'm pretty sure you guys don't  
even use our build system, so I don't think the existence or non- 
existence of a setting for our build system should actually affect you?
