I concur that this issue should be addressed by fixing the default behavior even at the risk of backwards compatibility issues - I seriously doubt that folks would complain about this change.

you have some other concern?

Hello Matt,

the image task now seems to contain a kind of hardcoded flattenmapper. This is not usual for an an ant.task, and I would be tempted to change even the default behavior of the task, considering this is a blatant bug. Of course this would violate BC, or at least need to be entered in the section "Changes that could break older environments". I find it unpleasant when we have to add new attributes/nested elements to tasks simply because the default behavior from the start was wrong or say ... unusual.

Maybe we ought to continue this discussion on the dev list.

Cheers,

Antoine
