1) Run e.g. "New File Type" wizard on apisupport/project 2) Proceed to "Name, Icon and Location" panel. Package combobox contains "META-INF.services" Very likely an error in ant/project(SourcesHelper.SourcesImpl.getSourceGroups) or java/project(PackageView.findNonExcludedPackages). Not sure. May be even intentional.
Same is true for any Java class, so I wouldn't worry about it for now. Yes, ideally "packages" which were not valid package names would be excluded, but I don't know where that should be implemented. Probably would be an API change in java/project/
