Cool.

I think we should use it for Cocoon first and see later on how Ant can make use 
of it. As Berin proposed that we should build smaller jar for parts of Cocoon 
(interfaces, core, samples, etc.) maybe we find the "smalles possible 
environment" to use it. Also, most of the needed jars are already in Ant (xerxes 
xalan) and thus only things like batik could be a huge part of it to process svg 
graphics.

Yes, I personally would.
