This is stuff that needs to be documented up-front and in-your-face. For example, if we're going to be serious about dub, all code examples on the front page of dlang.org ought to use it. Invocation syntax should be shown right there on the front page. It should permeate all documentation and frequently alluded to. Similarly, if we're serious about code.dlang.org, then it also needs to permeate all code examples on dlang.org throughout. It needs to be treated as first-class citizen. Otherwise, it can only be perceived as this nebulous side thing of unclear relevance that people will tend to ignore. T -- Computerese Irregular Verb Conjugation: I have preferences. You have biases.
