Kotlin meets Gradle

I just finished porting a very non-standard and highly customized Ant setup to Gradle, and the thought of now potentially rewriting the Groovy implementation in Kotlin isn't making me jump for joy.

(No, rewriting wouldn't be strictly necessary as Groovy will still be supported per the article. But for how long?)

However, when working with Gradle I do acutely feel the pain that is the lack of IDE support for Groovy, so perhaps this will be a worthwhile move in the long run.
