I agree with Dale... This is not a new problem and has already been discussed 
(in threads I can dig up if you really want them and verbally) we should 
optimize for the 95% case where we are not doing gaia+gecko patches...

Subject: Re: [b2g] Move Gaia to the same repository as Gecko (was Re: Workflow 
for landing gecko patches that require changes to gaia tests)

While I really hate the workflow of having to bisect problems that may be
anywhere between 2 seperate repositories

Putting gaia inside m-c doesnt seem like a scalable solution, should we be
putting gonk / the rest of android in there too?

I feel like in m-c I already see problems related to trying to chuck
everything in the same basket, shouldnt we be looking to better uncouple
projects (like repo per app in gaia :)) and have a better understanding of
tools like repo or other tools for handing multiple repositories (but not
submodules)
