> this does create a little more work for anyone wanting to use the optional
tasks, 

i.e. it would break every single build file on the planet that uses any optional
task.

Sam, we cannot do that. we cannot break every build file. We need a better
solution. For reference, my project's build process is documented here:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/smartfrog/core/antbuild/doc/third_generation_build_process.sxw

We have a directory of libraries under SCM, this directory contains the releases
of add on tasks that we require for the build. You need either to declare this
with a -lib option in ANT_OPTS, or pull the files into ANT_HOME/lib
${user.home}/.ant/lib

Life would be simpler if we could somehow declare in a per-project basis an
extra dir of stuff to load. All that stuff would need to be unloaded at the end
of the build of course, or you have just contaminated a hosting JVM. I just dont
see an easy way of doing this.
