Why not just tell these users to setup the working directories with
local .git directories and not use GIT_DIR?

suggest that we might want to bite the bullet and declare that
these things are not supported anymore in v1.5.0.

While we're talking about potentially deprecating GIT_DIR for users,
out of curiosity, what valid workflows would cause users to want to
use GIT_INDEX_FILE and GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY?  Seems like they would
cause more confusion and support problems than anything else.
