I'm having trouble envisioning a use case were nested declarations are
more valuable or intuitive than the existing methodology that others have
already pointed out. Can you enlighten us as to situations where you found
a nested approach to be more desirable than the standard methodology,
besides just saying that XML is hierarchical & so are directories?

Subject
nested mkdir tasks
Just out of curiosity, has there been any work done towards making the
<mkdir> task nest-able?
For example:
<mkdir dir="dir">
<mkdir dir="subdir" />
<mkdir dir="another_subdir">
<mkdir dir="a_sub-subdir" />
</mkdir>
</mkdir>
Which would create:
--- + dir
| - subdir
| + another_subdir
| | - a_sub-subdir
If so, where can I find it?
If not, are there any particular reasons not to? (It seems so natural a
thing to do in XML, but it doesn't work…)
