The best way of getting features into Apache's source repository is to submit a patch.
While true, that is a fairly hard task. First, which version would you target? Many users are still going to be on 2.0.9 while the 2.2 code base is a bit different and 3.0 even more so. Second, 2.0.x is incredibly fragile in a lot of cases. Changing much of anything in the core seems to have lots of side effects. Just look at how long the development of 3.0 has been going on and I believe Jason is actually paying people to try to get the job done.
Some of the complaints were about the release plugin, not just the ability to build from a subproject. I haven't seen too many comments that address those issues.
