How to reproduce:
1- Create a review.
2- Select any ".txt: or ".java" file from you "C\" drive. The file is nowhere inside your workspace, just in the eclipse editor.
3- Now Open the pull-down menu from the editor and try to create a review item from this external file. It will trigger the following error:
!ENTRY org.eclipse.mylyn.reviews.r4e.ui 4 0 2011-12-09 14:31:57.969

Should we support this scenario anyways?
