I'm not sure why that ability has never been added to dmd. Maybe it's because 
you can give a module a different name from its file name, or maybe it has to do 
with complications in searching for all of the possible places that the source 
could be (essentially the same issues you get with searching for libraries). 
There's probably on enhancement request for it, but I haven't looked. It sure 
would be nice though.
