Answering my own question, it appears that any datatype can be given an
"id" attribute. However, each task that allows a reference id
determines what datatypes can be referenced. As for "property", it
assumes that the referenced object has a meaningful toString() method
and uses its value to set the property.
For the pathconvert task that I posted, I can enhance it to deal with
referenced filesets in addition to paths.
Is this something people would want?
