Title: ant integration: need to be able to run more than one target

The current Ant integration is only usable some of the time for me, because it can only run one target at a time. So if I would have used

  ant clean compile
before, at the commmand line, I can just do two individual steps, clean and compile, and it is not a problem. But I also often use 'modifier' targets before others, to have the build system do things a bit differently or set certain values, e.g.

  ant sandbox compile
will do a compile, but also include sandbox code, which is normally compile. I have enough modifiers of this sort that it is not reasonable for me to create single targets which comprise eveything I need to do.

There are two approaches that might work. One is to allow multiple items to be picked off the target list, and as they are picked off a '1', '2', etc., gets added to them to show the order.

The other approach, which I prefer, is to have a text box above the target list, where I can simply type the targets, separated by spaces. I prefer this to the above, since it could then have a history list as well.
