Been there, done that, put enormous work into it, a TON of arguing to 
little avail, found the code architecture difficult to work with, and 
ultimately my merged PRs barely made a dent at solving my issues. Gave 
up. I'm convinced the problems with dub are fundamental and often 
philosophical.

After my experience tring to improve dub, I'm 100% convinced what we 
need is a package manager designed from the ground up to NOT be anything 
but a package manager.
