When a compiled classes (.jar, ...) is added to the project as a resource, it should be possible to add sources for those classes as a reference too. Debugger can benefit from that since it will be able to trace into the source of these classes, code completion can use parameter names from the source to better hint the user.

Aha, now I understand this issue. Adding reference sources to libraries is covered by separate task. This one covers the implementation of this ability for platforms.
Removed PROJECTS keyword since this task does not relate to projects. The projects prototype has been canceled. For more details see http://www.netbeans.org/servlets/ReadMsg?msgId=619519&listName=nbdiscuss
Works in D.
