A concern with a highly split stdlib is local testing. I'm not worried about pull request testing, or after-the-fact buildbot testing since I'd have to assume that we'd make sure the fully integrated sumo package was tested in both environments. But what about local testing? Let's say you change something in one module that causes a regression in a different module in a different repo. If you've only got a small subset checked out, you might never notice that before you PR'd your change. And then once the test fails, how easy will it be for you to recreate the tested environment locally so that you could debug your regression? I'm sure it's doable, but let's not lose sight of that if this path is taken. (Personally, I'm +0 on splitting out the stdlib and -1 on micro-splitting it.)
