The debug output is produced when the property is set. If you set a property - which is what input does - then its value will not only get logged at the debug level but also is available to all other tasks running inside the same Ant project (this could be meliorated by using local properties, but still). So using properties at all is not a good idea for something that is critical enough that you wouldn't want to leak it into debug output. Most of the time the person that provides the input is the same person that starts Ant and has control over the log output, the risk may be acceptable in many cases.
