Re: Magic updates

I have a small feature request for Magic.  I often need to copy the
jars needed for runtime like so:

    <x:path id="build.path"/>
    <x:replicate refid="build.path" todir="target/war"/>  
    <copy todir="target/war" flatten="true">
      <fileset dir="target/war" includes="**/*.jar"/>
    </copy>

It would be nice if replicate task had a flatten="true" option so I
didn't have to replicate and then do a copy.
