It would be nice.

I used to be one of the people, here, trying to encourage symlink support
on MS Windows (because my team works in a mixed environment), but having
lived with the lack of symlinks on MS Win more than long enough for my team
and I to have a mostly smoothly running cross-platform build system that
doesn't use symlinks. It got down to a matter of naming conventions and
specifying the appropriate search paths in our make files. If nothing else,
it does (implicitly) document the inter project relationships better than
symlinks do.

So, if it's not too hard or time consuming to implement, I'm sure at least
some people, here, will use the feature. (Probably including me, despite
what I said above)
