Essentially, ADL has awkward problems when getting beyond the simple

I could not agree more strongly!
If this feature were supported, it would probably break our module system.
Break how?
Even if we could shoehorn it into the language it would make the
compiler slower.
If ADL is done as a fallback, then it is only slower in those cases
where it is either actually used, or __traits(compiles,...) is used to
determine that some function overload does not exist.
