Yeppers.. It's not checked in yet, but there's some functionality that I'm
playing with right now that formalizes this sort of approach. It started out
as a proof of concept for doing CJAN downloads, but since a task jar can
live anywhere spec'd by a URL, it's cake to make it work for tasks well in
advance of CJAN.
