No this has a major flaw, sub-modules are not kept in sync, when you
update the API/ABI users have to update the depending sub-modules or
they'll screw-up in subtle non-obvious ways (e.g.: mysterious
crashes).

Anyway I suppose at least these merges would greatly help:
sawfish-pager => sawfish
librep-gtk    => librep

Now I don't know how unflexible is auto #!* and if it allows to do
that (which might explain why the split layout is so common)...
