This isn't actually the problem I want to solve, just an example of
where this might come in handy.  Even if it were, this just doesn't feel
like the right thing to do: the two (or three, or four...) projects
are not aspects of a single work, they just depend on a shared work.
The duplication need not be an issue, if you're using something like
perforce that can remap locations.

Quick hacks can do 90% of what I want (but will probably never support
things like [glob *.ext] the right way), so I suppose I'll try coding
one up and seeing how far I get.
