It would be nice to be able to kick of an Ant task from within another plugin, so as to manipulate properties within a plugin before kicking off the build.

I'm not sure I understood the request correctly. Is that true you're asking for an OpenAPI to be able to launch ant tasks plus notification about make/compile is going to start?

Yes. I have a need for a plugin to create some config/property files based on what they select (this I'm working on currently), after which I want an API to kick off an Ant build within IntelliJ's Messages tab as if the user kicked off an Ant Task themselves (this is what I am requesting). Currently I can build a plugin for managing the config info, but would have to create my own Messages window within the plugin for Ant output since I have no API to call IntelliJ's Ant task.
