A valid point, obviously which I didn't think of. Am I then correct in assuming
that Phobos doesn't guarantee ABI stability as in """Minor releases are
backwards binary and source compatible."""
(https://wiki.qt.io/Qt-Version-Compatibility)?

Very well – this means the request should be postponed till such a date that
DMD starts doing stable versioning...

How is it a decision for package maintainers? In my experience, package
maintainers don't like to fiddle with the default behaviour of software.
