For the Ant2 timescale, we have agreed to have an "failonerror aspect" that would take care of that. Users will then have the ability to decide on a task by task basis whether an error in that task should be considered critical or can be dealt with. > Perhaps a series of task containers <if> <unless> <while> <try> each > of which run tasks in a no-abort environment. All things you describe have been proposed before - and have been rejected by groups of committers of varying size (depends on the feature at hand). There will be implementation of these kinds of tasks, but they will (probably) never be part of Ant's core.
