Escape ", " separator in PatternSet

I need something like excludes="*\,*" in the zip task,
which means i want to exclude files which contain
a comma ',' in their name.
I think it is currently not possible as (i believe)
the excludes is handled by PatternSet.java which
uses java.util.StringTokenizer which has no escape
possibility for its separators.

Possible solutions:

o Use a new attribute excludesSeparator=";" to specify
  another separator for StringTokenizer

o Replace StringTokenizer by for example apache commons Tokenizer, see 
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/jakarta-commons/lang/src/java/org/apache/commons/lang/Tokenizer.java?rev=1.1&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup
where i could write for example excludes='"*,*",*.txt' or another tool which
supports escapes like excludes="*\,*"
