I have nothing against it, I think it would be a fine optional feature 
for dub. I won't be putting together a PR for it though, and I don't 
think there's all that much of a need for it since gen-package-version 
already exists and works AND doesn't require dub to be used as a 
project's build system.

(As much as I love dub for package management, and having the *option* 
of using dub as a build system, dub's built-in build system just isn't 
always the best fit for all projects. Pet peeve: I still find it very 
problematic that there's really no good way to tell dub "don't attempt 
to build this project yourself as this project uses a different build 
system, so just run the following command INSTEAD of directly attempting 
to build". I've tried to fool it into not actually doing the build 
itself, but it's quite messy and problematic. It claims to be usable as 
a package-manager-only, but realistically, that's still only true for 
top-level projects that are never, ever used as a dependency, and not 
for library projects or tools that other projects may wish to rely on.)
