I just noticed that Ant still has both the replaceTask and the 
filtersets in copy/zip etc. I'm sure you could accomplish an in-place 
replace with filtersets but I can see a task called replace being easier 
for new uesrs to deal with than filterchains.

What if you want to replace strings in a file in place ? - ie without
copying/moving the file

something like that yes :-)

but instead of having a separate task for that purpose, filterchain
     

support
 

would be added to existing tasks (like copy, zip, ...)

So in implementation it would work like this:

[FilterChain("filterchain")]
public FilterChain FilterChain {
...
}
Then in the execute task:

StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(...);
StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(...);
this.FilterChain.Filter(reader, writer);
Or something like that.
