Is it worth the time and effort of core developers and community reviewers, both now and as an ongoing feature-maintenance burden: absolutely not. I have no idea why this proposal is a priority right now.
Walter and I wanted to have a positive example of a good DIP that is relatively simple, is noncontroversial, and marks a definite move forward.
We believe the feature's benefits are significant, obvious, and immediate. With this feature, any large project would be able to radically clarify and improve its dependency structure with only little refactoring work. I interpret the negative feedback as failings of the DIP to explain and argue matters appropriately, so I'm working hard on improving it. Please keep feedback coming.
Thanks, Andrei
