Using git submodules, the maintenance required should be almost zero,
I should think:

The only change needed is at first clone, and I guess at every update:
one would need to check the list of submodules currently available,
and initialize any that has not been initialized yet.
I don't want to use submodules, because they change the work flow in the main repo.

My question to you is:  would you like to see a broken out repo, or would a tarball good enough for you?
