Ok, glad to see it's a bug and not a (fairly limiting) feature.

I might take a stab at fixing it, if it's not too hard.

The limitation is probably intentional, but the reasoning is 
unreasonably restrictive security limitations (something about 
path sanitizing being more difficult on Windows than POSIX, which 
doesn't apply to DMD).

I can do `import(test1.txt)` from test.d successfully, 
however, `import(subfolder/test2.txt)` fails with the error 
`file subfolder/test2.txt cannot be found or not in a path 
specified with -J`


I'm guessing that the -J option doesn't operate recursively, 
and that I'm not allowed to import files from `test/subfolder`.


Is there a way to make the entire `test` directory tree 
available for string imports?

Well this is awkward, I knew about this 2 major releases ago and just 
assumed it was already reported. Or some artificial limitation.


Well this brings me back down to earth after fixing a bug that was just 
reported via another bug fix that I PR'd 2 major releases ago (not 
pulled yet).
