Why can't sbt 0.11 sbt-idea plugin generate a project correctly in my case? (details inside)

Question

I've installed sbt 0.11 sbt-idea as its documentation says. It seems to work, but...

1. It doesn't see a project's name (even having the project named, Idea project generated is named default-11eed1)

2. It fails downloading some jars it wants

If you want a specific project name, I think you need to use a "full" build configuration, rather than a "light" configuration. SBT automatically assigns a project ID if you only have a build.sbt file, and this is used as the IntelliJ module name.

sbt-idea automatically downloads the source JARs for your library dependencies, and for SBT itself. Not all libraries are published with sources, in those cases this warning is shown.
