-1 because it introduces uneeded complexity into the core that is specific to 
the patterns of a particular project. An alternative implementation would be 
to write your own taskdef-like class that took in the particulars of your 
specific project and use that. That way you can use what ever reflection 
mechanisms you want without forcing the complexity onto the rest of the ant 
users.
