No, it wasn't ignored. I think coordinating tooling with dmd releases is a good idea and plan to bring it to our next monthly meeting. There's just no way it could happen with this release through. The release process was already well underway when you posted this, and Iain Buclaw is managing it for the first time. It was a bit late and a bit much to throw on him at the last minute.
I'm highly confident I'll find general agreement on this in the meeting. Then it will just be a matter of identifying all of the tooling projects we need to keep in sync, who to coordinate with to make it happen, how to make it happen, etc. I see this as the sort of thing that would fall under the purview of the ecosystem management team once we get the ball rolling there.
I believe we should "synchronize" compiler release with essential packages (like vibe, mir, arsd-official etc) as well. I mean we should ensure that these packages won't break after compiler release.
This together with tooling will shape D managed ecosystem which I believe everyone will benefit from.
