Summary: Classpath Relative to Project File

Initial Comment:
In the "Project Properties" dialog, a user can add extra classpath items for a project, but the entries are stored as absolute paths. That means that if the project is copied to another computer and the classpath items are not in the same place, they will not be found.

Often, it makes sense to distribute a jar file with a project, and that jar file moves with the project file. Therefore, it should be possible to designate an extra classpath item as relative to the project file.
