I agree with basically everything you said.
I'll add, I have no use for (and no way to use) dub because I depend
on cross-language build configurations.
If my D project depends on a C lib, then what am I supposed to do to
make dub useful for me?

I have an issue with your proposed module management solution that I
wonder if you can address.
You suggest placing source in the root of the repo. Just... no. I will
never do that. The root directory is for readme's, licenses, maybe a
build script. It's not the place for the source, that lives in 'src'.
What's the solution to this problem?
Is it that your src directory should have symlinks to the src
directories of the submodules? Is that why you raise the symlink
support on windows issue? I haven't thought of that before, and have
no idea if it works...

Does git support relative symlinks?
