Using Gradle and the gradle-gae-plugin debug parameters are not passed

I'm using gradle to build, run, deploy my Google App Engine project. The gradle-gae-plugin (version 0.4) seems to work perfect with one caveat. The debug parameters are never passed to the local running engine during gaeRun.

I've changed the http port, so I see at least one parameter taking effect. However, my IDE is rejected on the default 8000 debug port, and netstat shows nothing listening on 8000.

Here is the gae closure from my build.gradle:

gae {
    httpPort = 8888
    debug = true
    debugPort = 8000
}

And the informational log statement coming out of GaeRunTask.groovy of the gradle-gae-plugin

[INFO] [org.gradle.api.plugins.gae.task.GaeRunTask] Using params = [com.google.appengine.tools.development.DevAppServerMain, --port=8888, /[project-dir]/war/build/exploded-war]

------------------------------------------------------------
Gradle 1.0-milestone-3
------------------------------------------------------------

Gradle build time: Monday, 25 April 2011 5:40:11 PM EST
Groovy: 1.7.10
Ant: Apache Ant(TM) version 1.8.2 compiled on December 20 2010
Ivy: 2.2.0
JVM: 1.6.0_23 (Sun Microsystems Inc. 19.0-b09)
OS: Linux 2.6.38-8-generic amd64

This is because version 0.4 does not support the debug flag yet. I am currently working on version 0.5 and had already checked in the changes for the README.md file on master. Please refer to tag v0.4 for available convention properties in version 0.4. I will probably push the next version within the upcoming week. As soon as I do I will let you know.
