 create new type Set of FileSets and ZipFileSets

           Summary:  create new type Set of FileSets and ZipFileSets
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5.1
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


create a new type which would be a set of FileSet(s) and/or
ZipFileSet(s)

make this type be accepted as nested element in the packaging tasks
(Zip, Jar, War, Ear)

This enhancement maybe an extension of, or used with issue 17007. 

Issues as noted by Antoine Levy-Lambert on the Ant-Users mailing list to my 
post is:
"--according to the source code ZipFileSet cannot be defined outside of
the Zip class My understanding is that it does not make sense currently to 
define ZipFileSet outside of the Zip class, because ZipFileSet cannot be cloned
properly (clone method is not implemented for ZipFileSet ) so a clone of a 
ZipFileSet would actually be a FileSet (????) not good

"--there is no type available to store a set comprising of FileSet(s) or
ZipFileSet(s)"
