Description

It's quite frustrating that the example configuration files depend on an edited version of the general.classpaths property to include target/classes from each of the modules. These not only tend to get out of date, but they also don't seem to add much value to the general.classpaths default. Additionally, they should not be provided as examples, because those are not examples we want to recommend in production.

Instead, we can provide a simple flag, perhaps as a single, hidden configuration option to automatically prepend these to the value of general.classpaths, for developer use.
