One technique I use is to use <preset|macro|scriptdef>
internally to your build file.  You can set these
conditionally depending on what "mode" you are running
in, but this is only useful up to a point, mostly for
fairly atomic operations.  This technique could become
exponentially difficult with each subsequent "task".

FWIW,
Matt
