The tip could probably use a rewrite in editing, but I'm out of time
again tonight and I hope I got the point across anyway. As someone who
really likes distributing single-file libraries when possible, the lazy
import has given me some cool interop things without compromising my
preferred distribution strategy.
Conditional importing is something I love in D and occasionally find
indispensable. Unfortunately, dub's "always throw every file I can
possibly find at the compiler" completely breaks it :( I am working on
some PRs though which hopefully will get accepted and (I hope) should
make it possible for a lib to essentially say "I get built using rdmd
(or whatever) not dub's internal build system" which would fix the
problem (or at least make it bypassable anyway).
