Introducing an <annotation> element

           Summary: Introducing an <annotation> element
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.6.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: cthiele@ct42.de


The <annotation> element can be used building documentation systems like javadoc
for Ant and for controlling build file preprocessing done with XSLT or other tools.

The <annotation> element can occur in every place in the buildfile where other
elements can take place too, directly in project, in targets, in macrodef and
container tasks like sequential and in tasks and datatypes along nested elements.

All attributes, text nodes and nested elements of <annotation> are ignored by
Ants build file processing.

Patch for ProjectHelper2.java against CVS HEAD attached and a test/example
buildfile is attached too.
