Eclipse RCP - Shere javadocs and attached sources of dependencies among projects in workspace

I'm working on a set of plugins for a commercial Eclipse RCP Application "FOO_APPLICATION", which comes with html javadocs for api plugins and without sources.

I'm using Eclipse 4.5.2 and the target "FOO_APPLICATION" is based on an older version of Eclipse, 3.6

Everything seems fine but I'm experiencing this annoying issue:

If I attach javadocs or sources to plugin dependecies (for eclipse standard plugins I can also attach sources, because I have also the original 3.6 sdk sources jar) Eclipse does not remember this setup and I have to do this again at every startup. :(

What I'm missing here?

But consider also this point: I'd really like to solve this problem from a wider point of view: since I have many projects (in the same workspace) that share the same dependencies of "FOO_APPLICATION", is there a way to setup sources or javadocs once and made them available throughout the whole workspace?

If the sources are present in the target platform as individual Source Bundles, the source is automatically displayed.

As far as I know, there's nothing comparable for Javadoc.
