Excellent idea. I think we should go for it.

I don't think this model mandates we have to keep v1 around 
forever. We might support it for a few years from v2 
stabilisation and then drop it.

Some have asked why we cannot just move and break stuff. My 
opinion is that it would probably be okay if everyone would be 
using Phobos only directly. But many of the DUB packages are also 
going to depend on one or the other Phobos. Save for separately 
compiled binary libraries, they cannot be used together anymore 
if v1 and v2 don't interoperate.
