Currently the sharedlib support does not allow individual absolute jar

I personally don't have a problem with support both directories for jars
and/or specific jar references in sharedlib.
In the eclipse tooling, I'd like to support projects that have external
jar entries to be deployed in-place to the shared library.
I implemented an alternative solution, which I quickly found to fail on
windows, and that was to provide a dummy jar with absolute classpath
entries that point back to these external jars. This worked great on
mac/linux, but apparently its not part of the jar manifest spec and does
not work on windows.
Any suggestions?
