I personally always try to minimize external dependencies, because at 
some point they always cause problems. Sometimes it's possible to 
resolve those quickly, but even then, it usually leaves a bad taste if 
they are required for the whole system to function reliably.

On the other hand, my plan is definitely to split vibe.d itself up into 
separate libraries, so that they can be maintained and versioned 
according to their individual development pace. But that means just that 
they are in separate repositories instead of submodules within the same 
one, not finer granularity.
