It'd be great to include npm/rfcs#547 - there was a PR attempt at one point, but the RFC was misunderstood, and it was abandoned (i can't find it at this time).

[wraithgar]

Based on the misunderstandings and issues trying to implement that I think we will not be attempting that one. This is not a very big release to begin with, mostly cleanup and low hanging fruit.

Ever, or just for v11?

[wraithgar]

This is the v11 issue.
