Easy forking is nice, but it could be a problem in our case. The
license for the backend is not open-source enough for someone to

I suggested elsewhere in this thread that the two must be separated
first. I think it must be done anyway when moving to a DVCS, regardless
of the specific one or which hosting site we'd use.
I agree, separating out the proprietary stuff has other interesting
possibilities such as a D front end written in D and integration with
IDEs and analysis tools.
Of course all of this is possible now, but it'd make merging front end
updates so much nicer.
