The Name field isn't needed.
Hold on, why not? Maybe it isn't needed for J2SE projects (actually maybe it is - folder name need not be same as project name); definitely it may be needed for other project types.
I thought we agreed on removing multiple project names and have only one. But it seems we only agreed on not allowing the user to change the project name in the GUI for J2SE project type. Will update the spec.
This issue was solved long time ago. Because nobody has reopened it neither added comments, we are verifying/closing it now. If you are still able to reproduce the problem, please reopen. Thanks in advance.
