I for one would very much appreciate it. Deleting the class files is not always an option because in my case there are several preceding build processes that generate class files in the same directory. They include classes generated by torque and axis, so simply using a faster compiler doesn't make a complete rebuild much faster in my case. > Most build tools require you do at least something extra (even if it's > just passing a flag).
