How to Set Ant Options in NetBeans

Sometimes I need to ask NetBeans to run ant with -verbose or -debug options, when building or running a project. It can be set at Tools | Options | Misc | Ant Options

This took me a while to find out. I first thought it must be somewhere in the project property, similar to how I set java compiler option and java runtime options.

As it turns out, ant options in NetBeans are global, and any changes will affect all projects. I'm wondering if it makes sense to allow it to be set at project level as well, with project-wide setting overriding IDE-wide setting.
