I guess I'm the only one that's been using it, and IIRC I proposed it.
Indeed, git submodules aren't yet user friendly enough, and keeping
xwiki-trunks up to date requires a lot of effort. The goal was to have a
single repository that devs have to check out, instead of 5 (4 now), but
submodules aren't supposed to serve this goal (wrapper around several
distinct active repositories), but more like a way to embed a rarely
updated dependency in a project.

+1 for removing it.
