I'd like to refine this a bit more...  We typically have several subsystems
that are under development, each with it's own build.xml in a corresponding
subsystem sub-directory. I'd like some hierarchy of .ipr files that allows
me to establish a set of project-wide settings, then a customized .ipr file
for each subsystem -- here's where you could import Ant build.xml classpaths
because they'd be specific to the subystem.

At a minimum, it would be nice if IDEA were sensitive to a file
("local.ipr") where I could establish the classpaths for my specific
subsystem. Perhaps I could write an Ant target that generated the
appropriate XML for that local.ipr file and I could move from subsystem to
subsystem without having to replicate some settings and customize others.

If you could offer a hierarchy of files, seems like:

1) Project
        2) Subsystem
                3) Individual

would work well, where each setting could be overridden at the leaf node of
the hierarchy. This way a projec team could establish a set of defaults,
which could be refined by the subsystem team, which could be refined by the
individual developer
