Am I correct in my belief that were a java style ant task to be made part
of the Java style distribution, and not ant, there would be no issues?

If that were the the case then the solution to the problem would be "add the
ant task to the style libraries" and be done with it. Same for some means of
invoking ant from within Jedit. (has anyone scripted that yet?)
