Well, this is not entirely true.  It is possible to change property
values via Ant's API (and thus via a custom task), there is just no
built-in task that would do so.

The bigger problem with a foreach like task setup would be that the
nested task will only get "configured" (attributes set, properties
expanded) once, not once per iteration.  So you are basically forced
to do the configuration yourself (in the container) rather than
letting Ant do it.
