I think it would be worthwhile to tackle an incremental copy task. What I mean by that is to make the Copy task smart enough to copy only those files that have changed. The generic incremental build will figure out whether anything has changed. If at least one input/output file has changed the copy task is triggered and then copies _everything_ again. It would be nice if the incremental build API could be used by the Copy task to query which files have changed and only copy those. It has this information. That would be a nice and simple use case for hammering out a public API for querying the incremental build.
