We've set up our ant build scripts to default to a file-specified target if
you just call build from any directory.  I think that would be useful as a
generic feature in Idea.  Be able to assign a default ant target to each
package.  Then, when you select build or compile from a right mouse click,
the appropriate ant target gets executed.

An example...

We have .buildtarget files that sit in subdirectories of our project.  If I
am somewhere down in our utests subtree and edit a file and want to build
it, I'd just type build and our build script searches each directory for the
.buildtarget file and then executes ant with that target.  

I can set up a tool in Idea to call our build script and build in this
manner, but we don't get the nifty ant results parsing and double click on
error stuff.

Thanks,
