It is? Where? You can iterate over a fileset (with each file in that set being the param that's passed), but I don't see that you can specify a file that contains a list of items to iterate over. IOW, it'd probably mean adding a new attr, say, 'listfile', that, when specified, reads in that file and passes as the param each line from that file. That'd get you what you need and avoid all these major mongo changes to Ant code, and it seems like it'd be far more generally useful than putting all this effort into just the task specifically (especially since you may well be the only person who'd ever want the task to do the stuff you're trying to make it do).
