Thanks for the rationale, and glad to hear you're planning to fix it in DMD!
We should probably document it at some point, but it's a minor point.

The purpose for it being overridden is so that one can temporarily "swap in" an
alternate version of a source file from another directory. This is very useful
in debugging thinks like Phobos. It's a feature not a bug.

I plan to fix dmd so that its imports match its file structure, for the reasons
you mentioned.

Anyhow, this is working as designed, and is a feature.
