One of the problems here is that it is not always possible to reconstruct the XML for a particular TASK. That is, tasks MUST have setXXX methods for every attribute, but there is no requirement that they provide a corresponding getXXX. Simillar for createXXXX, addXXXX, etc. Hence there is no way to given objects created programatically to get back what the settings for those objects are.
