Snipped a bit, tl;dr is you should use dub.
I use it but with no success in the matter of the proposal.
How could you be sure that after long lonely work the proposal
is worth
inclusion?

If it's worth inclusion in phobos, it will rise to the top.
I actually don't know how to comment that in regards to the DIP.
I don't recall dedicated protects for particular modules.
Maybe I'm wrong but there is a big controversy and
fragmentation e.g. in
database and gui domain.
Moving things towards phobos won't help with fragmentation,
will just piss
those off who disagree.
Any example of existing Phobos modules (added recently)?
I like the idea of having a 'recommended' section in dub, for
those things considered by the community to be good. I don't
think anything should even
think about phobos inclusion (even on-path-to-inclusion) until
it has been used and abused enough.
I don't have nothing against. But IMO this won't solve the
problem with standardization of functionality. From the
perspective of usual user.
We have this nice package system for non-phobos stuff, should
leverage it.
The functionality of dub is not related to the DIP. I tried to
keep it as a separate topic.
