It looks cool. I was just playing with Grunt earlier this month, in order
to automatically watch for changes, compile and deploy my Client-side files
into JCR - [0]

This is where I'd see the benefit of using Grunt.

I'll try integrating with your task too, as I was only using 'curl'
commands to upload and I like that you have used 'request' lib;
Did you consider writing a NPM out of this task ? I think that would come
handy.

Cheers,
Dragos
