enhance <available> to test for owner, group and permissions - security feature

           Summary: enhance <available> to test for owner, group and
                    permissions - security feature
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5.3
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: hauser@acm.org


It would be great if the <available> tag could also be used to test for example
that a .ssh directory is only readable by its owner, a private key in a https
server installation is only readable by e.g. user "apache" or the "webapps"
group including also tomcat and mysql etc., the corresponding certificate only
writable by "apache", that certain scripts (setuid, etc.) are owned by root, etc.

or would you rather create an own task <permissions> for this?
