Has anyone brought up (or implemented) the idea that it would be really nice
to be able to do the following?

    <classpath refid="basic.class.path">
        <pathelement location="myjar.jar" />
    </classpath>
 
The above is intuitive and much less verbose than having to define another
path that extends "class.path".  I'm using ant1.2 so if it has already been
implemented in development, please let me know.  I'd rather not fill up
"basic.class.path" with many jars that are only used by individual, but
different tasks.
 
Thanks!
