Patch to deal with it in the context of PumpStreamHandler has been
sent to this list yesterday.  This should make it work for <exec> and
<java>, I haven't looked at it at all though.

But I guess this is not what you are talking about.

Interesting question is, which task should get to read from standard
input if several tasks run in parallel ...  Maybe all of them?

Providing input to tasks is a different beast in that you may want to
have the GUI pop up a dialog to ask for input instead of falling back
to standard input.
