Thanks for clearing this out. It is good to know that it is intended
behavior.

What do I find inconsistent?

The documentation says "Only files found on the source path..." and
.gwt.xml I thought/hope relative filepath was specified and not classpath.

So I would propose the following change

-Only files found on the source path are candidates
+Only files found on the source classpath are candidates
...
+Note: If you are merging classes from multiple projects on the same
package structure and you have one .gwt.xml specifying a classpath in
one of the projects all classes in that classpath (from multiple
projects) are candidates to be translated in javascript.
