Imagine your wanting to get some new flash feature (doesn't require compiler change) by just adding druntime/phobos as a dependency via dub. You don't really want to recompile the assembly/c stuff that almost definitely hasn't changed.
Why not? It's more likely you'll run in to problems with forgetting to compile it when it really has changed.
Not many people may want to do that. But it should be reasonable to do so. But this is mostly a Windows issue then posix. There its pretty well defined. Windows ergg.
If it's only a problem on Windows, don't compile it on Windows :). The other platforms should suffer because of this.
