Currently, submodules relocate the GITDIR of submodules to
.git/modules.  So, my proposed patch doesn't make the situation any
worse.  In fact, it improves the situation because you're guaranteed
that all your GITDIRs will be in ~/bare (or whatever your
core.submoduleGitDir is), as opposed to a complex path in .git/modules
of your containing superproject.
