Description
If an app depends on a jar with a classifier then the sources cannot be found and you get the (rubbish) disassembler results. E.g.
<dependency>
<groupId>com.example</groupId>
<artifactId>mylibrary</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<classifier>func</classifier>
</dependency>
might have many classes, and source code, but none of them can be browsed.

Research direction
Reproduce the problem with the classifier-bearing dependency shown in the issue and inspect the extension's source lookup path for Java dependencies. Done means classes from the classified JAR expose their source code for browsing instead of only disassembler output.
