These are compelling points. I also never thought through the 
interconnectedness of the compile tasks; I'm now inclined to agree that 
aliases are the way to go here instead of an implicit framework.

A middle ground occurs to me: what if, similar to the grouping of modules 
in the sidebar of ex_docs, we allowed regexes to play a part in an alias 
specification? This is still relatively explicit per-project while also 
allowing for a measure of auto-discovery of similar tasks.
