yeah just put it in your project folder, not the source folder, 
so it looks like this:

source/
    app.d
    some_other_file.d
dub.sdl

then you just run `dub` in the folder with dub.sdl

A minor "limitation" can be that the files must follow their 
filenames as modulenames more strictly (otherwise weird errors 
could happen if you add `module bar;` in foo.d for example)
