Can one use the .jardesc file with an ant jar task? [message #255450]

I would find it most convenient if one could use the .jardesc file that
one can create using the JarPackager to specify what files should be
jar-ed up.
Can one somehow use those .jardesc files as input to ant's <jar ... />
task? I found no parameter that sounded promising.

A short google search revealed that this has already been discussed in
this very NG in 2005. Has there anything been done or developed since to
support this?

A bugzilla search might also help ;-)

Note that the new Runnable JAR file export wizard can create an ant
build file.
