How to create an SBT Run configuration in IntelliJ IDEA 11 Community Edition?

Question

I have created a Lift project ifor IDEA 11 Community Edition using an sbt-idea plugin. It compiles and runs well from SBT plugins SBT console, I`m also able to debug it via creating right "Remote" configuration.

But how do I create an SBT Run configuration?

I don't want to type each time "container:start" in SBT console, I want to startup using a Run/Debug button.
I was unable to find some SBT configuration type (like there is available a "Maven" type), and when I try to add configuration based on "Application type" I cannot specify the main class.

There is also no "Scala Compilation Server" type available (I cannot see it in the list of available configuration types), so I cannot use solutions like this https://stackoverflow.com/a/6131737/705819/
Are there any specific actions that should be done for the "Scala Compilation Server" type to show up? Or does it available only in the full edition of IDEA?

UPDATE: I`m also using JRebel for my project. Without proper run configuration I have to run SBT with JRebel via VM parameters and debug via Remote configuration - so it makes me to restart debugger each time I update the code (cause Jrebel reloads the class) instead of just clicking "Debug with Jrebel" button (thanks to the Jrebel IDEA plugin). It is very annoying, please help!

How much of the servlet container do you need? I would recommend to write a normal main method that starts an embedded Jetty.

Add this to your build settings to add Jetty to the test classpath:

libraryDependencies += "org.mortbay.jetty" % "jetty" % "6.1.22" % "test"

Then take a code snippet from here to start Jetty:

You can set up a pre-run action for this Run Configuration to run sbt package, which will create a the WAR.
