Yes, this is correct. You should see the lowercase folder included with
SystemFolders_j_.

There is a good reason for the distinction between SystemFolders and
UserFolders. In both cases you want the convenience of using folder names.
However UserFolders are intended for storing your J code and the ide
searches through them for projects. Typically they will have a shallow
directory tree, for example the only large UserFolders I have are for the
addons and public svns. OTOH SystemFolders can point to arbitrarily large
directory trees and are not searched through.
