It would affect the repo urls as well. Which means that yes, all
references would need to be updated. Everywhere. So, as much as I think
it's a good idea, I feel that if it happens, it needs to be announced
well in advance to give people time to prepare.

Though, the point is a bit moot as someone already has the dlang name...
