OK, maybe not a few, but at least <style force=""> ;-) <copy overwrite=""> makes sense, although force would have been a good name too, by <apply> does not necessarily write files, although it often will I admit. I just think force fits better in this context. But I'm not 'attached' to force either ;-) Maybe we should use a global policy like Steve's <force> <timestamp> in his <getlibrary> task?
