Annoying: Long paths for jars in the module editor
If i include a jar with a really long path, the UI shows the jar as:
"C:\My Documents\Work\Project Foo\Project Bar\lib\..."
This is pretty useless, since the most important info is actually the jar file itself, otherwise I get a list that just looks like the same thing 20 times in a row.
A better representation of this would be:
"C:\...\Project Bar\lib\runtime\baz.jar"
Giving preference first to the jar file.
I'm sure there is an open bug on this, so I am posting here just to make sure it gets fixed before 4.0 comes out

I'd probably prefer just baz.jar with no path, myself. You should file a request.
Moreover, when you hover the mouse pointer over it, it shows the path wrapped, which looks even worse.
What build are you referreng to? In the latest build (1113) libraries are represented as trees and scrollers are available
