As discussed in this mailing list thread:

I believe it would provide a nicer first-time experience for pydev
users if the workflow were simply "here is my code, let's go", rather than
"here is my project, and no don't create a 'src' folder, and by the way
here is my interpreter, and by the way here are the locations in my project
folder where source code lives". I have to imagine that most people trying
out pydev are trying it on an existing codebase and not a fresh new project.

Fabio suggests that this could be a new wizard.

    Personally I'd rather that this be a simple "open file" dialog where I choose a directory and then the project is instantly created; wizards mean lots of clicking through multiple windows.
