I like this feature. I have been using the local task multiple times in my targets to name properties, this enhancement will make my build scripts much more cleaner.

As there were no feedback on bugzilla, I thought I start a little promotion. The patch adds some functionality to the local task: <!-- foo is a local property - like today --> <local name="foo" /> <!-- All properties with the prefix "local." are local --> <local prefix="local" /> <!-- all properties are local --> <local/> Additionally the new task "global" was added to be able to export a property from a scope if all other properties are defined local. <!-- all properties are local ... --> <local/> <!-- ... except the property gFoo --> <global name="gFoo" /> Most important for me (and hopfully others) are the addition to the local task (local-by-prefiy and all-local). The global tasks seems like a logical implication to me. Please have a look at the description for Bugzilla 53723 and the patch. It would be great if this enhancement would be included into ant.
