I have seen mentioned a number of times the notion of a set of

Is there a list of these somewhere?

There's a brief description of them in http://gradle.org/0.9-preview-3/docs/userguide/tutorial_java_projects.html#N10415

There's really only the following lifecycle tasks at the moment:
* clean
* check
* assemble
* build

Arguably classes and test should be included in this list too.

Like for example, I have seen such a task named "doc" or "docs" a number
of times and I think it would be beneficial for the jDocBook plugin (and
other documentation related tasks/plugins) to register "depends on" for
its tasks against that convention task.

I agree. Perhaps we should add a 'docs' task to the base plugin (and the list above), or add a documentation-base plugin which adds in 'docs' plus whatever convention properties we need for documentation.
