+1. Count me as another 'wild' one. :) 

Another very common usage that i have seen & used many times is the
following :

<target name="cleancompile" depends="remove.classes,compile"/>

Where as 'compile' target does not declare dependency on remove.classes.
However cleancompile assumes that the  dependent targets are executed
sequentially.

I am interested to know why is it desirable to have the parallel
executor work on unmodified build XML files.
