In general yes, but I think that there should be two separated tools and 
handle what they're designed to handled. On top of that they should have 
great integration with each other. I'm not talking about processes 
invoking each other. I'm talking about both tools are built as libraries 
and can be easily integrated with each other.

Say we have build tool A and package manager B. I don't want to force 
anyone using A just to use B, or the opposite.
