Dlang needs a dynamic import capaibility #27

A developer could dispense with needing dub, and just do an import:

import foo.bar.frotz // Magically download/build from code.dlang.org, or other private or public repository

Question would be how to specify the metadata typically required by dub: version, path or repository location, dependencies, and other data needed for builds.

NOTE: This is not my idea, but it came out of the thread of discussion from http://forum.dlang.org/post/n843v7$2fic$2@digitalmars.com
