Yes dub was setup to cover the most common cases, but ignores

There is a PR to add build steps currently, which will help 
improve things, so there is work to make dub better at these 
less common use cases.

The simplest solution is to do one package per binary, then use 
a shell script to trigger them in succession, not great but a 
workable solution.

It's interesting to hear that multiple outputs are rare for other 
developers.

So I was hoping to do away with shell scripts (or make) since dub 
is common on all systems, but alas it's not worth the effort, so 
I won't continue to try and make `"targetType":"none"` work.

By the way, do you know if there will be a dub "build-all" type 
command in the future?
