 Description   

It is absolutely normal case that I have some folder where I want to do tokens filtering more than once. For now it is possible only during real copy operation. If I specify "from" and "into" dir the same task does nothing.
Also it would be nice to have ability to specify more than on "filter" attribute and do filtering of files in sequencial order of filters. Example:

project.copy (){
   from "folder"
   into "folder"
   filter(org.apache.tools.ant.filters.ReplaceTokens, tokens: props)
   filter(org.apache.tools.ant.filters.ReplaceTokens, tokens: props2)
}

It doesn't make much sense to filter into the same location as this would override the source input files, breaking the task for the future.
