Create a project without specifying a compiler output path.

Visit project properties, for example in order to change some javadoc 
settings.

Try to compile your project.  You'll get a dialog saying the output path 
isn't specified, and when you click OK the project properties will be 
shown -- but it will show the same page it did when you closed the 
dialog last time.  I think it would be better to automatically switch to 
the compiler settings tab, especially since if you happened to have 
visited the JavaDoc settings, the topmost field says "Output Path:", and 
it's easy to think that that refers to the compiler's output path...

BTW, why do I *have* to specify the compiler output path and certain 
other paths in various dialogs by clicking the "..." button?  Sometimes 
I want to paste a path into a text field rather than searching for it in 
a file dialog.  Especially on a multi-user unix system where /home might 
be huge...  I prefer having a text field available, as in the Javadoc 
output directory settings.
