I saw the attrib task earlier... my issue with this task is that it
resets *all* properties.  It would be nice if there were a similar task
that only changed the attributes that were explicitly defined in the
build file.

Yes, I know how simple it would be to write this task based on the
existing AttribTask.
Yes, I know that this task would be slightly slower than AttribTask
because each file would be touched twice - once to read existing
attributes and once to set the new attribute set.

I guess I'm lazy... I needed to do a copy at the same time as resetting
the read-only flag, so it was just as easy to fork off to xcopy to do
both :-)


Is this something that filterchains could deal with, in the copy task?
Or are filterchains purely a content thing, and adding attribute support
to copy would be an orthogonal change?
