That's a very use feature I've always missed! Let's take a look... :)
But if you ever change build infrastructure I suggest using Groovy or
BeanShell, or in fact any other scripting language that seamlessly
integrate with Java (as opposed to satatic ad-hoc languages like ant or
groovy build files that hardly integrate with Java at all).
