hmm - mode attribute could be maybe a little tidier than mine approach...
> Martin - how does your implementation perform the merging ? Do you merge
the raw xml of the old "f1" fileset with that of the new definition and
instantiate a new fileset instance based on that ?
currently I do it as close as possible to current implementation. So 2nd
fileset replace the 1st one completely and you have to add one more line to
append to it:
<fileset id="docassemblies" basedir="${output.dir}">
<includesFileset refid="docassemblies"/>
<includes name="${filename}.dll"/>
</fileset>
that means, every <fileset> is in fact new data type definition and
appending is the therefore more complicated.
As a sideefect to enable this I have to enable also use of type-defs in
TaskContainer (used in <if> and <foreach> )

doable for filesets doing it for all datatypes won't be much more work.
Agree :-)
