Description pzajac 2000-09-04 13:40:16 UTC 
[1091]
Reproduction:
1) Open template wizard for class.
2) On step "Add interface and class" click to add interface
3) Type name of package instead of interface name and click ok

Package is added into "Implemented interfaces" list.
It is beauty when is showed message that it is not interface like it is done
for class.

First, I cannot verify that some name identifies a package. It would be easy for
mounted filesystems, but not so easy for IDE's CLASSPATH. Maybe, if the core
would mount all classpath's roots as filesystems the test would be possible.
That leaves me with two states:
- either the name user types can be resolved to a valid class or interface, and
the appropriate icon is shown
- or it cannot be resolved for some reason and then I have to suppose that "the
user is right" and allow the name to be entered.
A special icon (like class/interface icon with a question mark) can be created
for a superclass or interfaces that can't be resolved from the names that user
has entered.
