A quick straw poll. Do people prefer to have all sources

Separate compilation imposes continuous re-processing of files.
D is a modern language with a proper module system so it's easy
to figure out dependencies. imo everything should be passed to
the compiler which then should create a dependency graph and
begin compilation with the sinks, using as much internal
parallelism as possible, as opposed to the crappy makefile-level
concurrency C++ uses.
