So does everyone else's java tools, including eclipse, netbeans, javac.  And
by "insist", you mean "does this by default" - it's optional but highly
recommended.

Right.  That's sensible for any non-tiny codebase.

Yup.  You'll hate yourself when you try to manage a nontrivial project that's
set up wrong, but it's allowed by almost all java tools.
