Description
When following standard conventions, users put .scala files in the root of the project directory in sbt. However, sbt-eclipse doesn't add a .classpath entry for these .scala files in the root directory.
see stack overflow for an example where the .classpath generated for the sbt build is missing the the root directory, and for a manually generated solution.
It's probably possible to detect this situation automatically by noticing .scala files in the root directory. But even without an automatic detection, an option like sourcesInRootDirectory=true would be nice.

Research direction
The issue names no source file, entry point, or test. First reproduce the generated .classpath with a .scala file in the project root, then compare it with the manually generated solution linked in the issue; done means the root directory is included automatically or through an option such as sourcesInRootDirectory.
