I see - so this isn't the complex part of the change we were talking
about. This is simply adding an ant target to beehive-imports.xml. It
seems like a good addition, but one question I have is whether we should
be supporting different project models with something like this. Seems
like we're moving away from a source-under-web-content model. What do
you think?
