path elements in copy task

Hi all.  Just a quick question.  I'm not seeing anything in the 
documentation about paths being allowed within the copy task.  Is this 
something that's being considered?  It would certainly be useful.  Thanks, Tom

If you are working on a Unix box, using a fileset with dir="/" would
help - see my other post in the thread "Manifests, copy task".

As an example: I set up a path that contains, as path elements, the 
collection of jars needed by my application.  I use this path for 
compiling, of course.  I would also like to use this collection for copying 
my jars to their final destination.  Also, by setting up my collection of 
jars this way, I get automatic documentation about what jars are required 
by the application.
