the directories 'runtime/' and 'plugin/' were a solution for us, the
developers, to classify the jar we encountered in the development of
webtest.
We wanted to group the jar according to their intended usage: is the
jar there to let webtest run, to compile webtest, to test webtest, ...
Between 1159 and 1393, we changed to the maven style, in which a file
describes the jar we need and why we need it.
This information was, and is, only interesting, during the build and
packaging of webtest, so you don't need these directories anymore.
Indeed, all the jar files are now directly under lib/.
