+1 to target-less build files; -1 to requiring <target/>, unless there's some compelling technical reason why it would have to be there. <target> should be available as a way to encapsulate a set of actions to perform -- eg., if you want to separate compiling, file-copying, jar'ing, deploying, etc. -- but it shouldn't be mandatory.
