I fully recognize the pain of maintaining a big package and then on top of that paying attention to packaging a pile of Node.js modules. It is also, however, a pain to maintain a pile of Node.js modules and then on top of that paying attention to big packages struggling with bundled Node.js modules. Suggestion: Please consider filing RFP bugreports for each Node.js module that you give up on unbundling. That is far more helpful towards delegating the work than mentioning deep inside a mailinglist thread without "help needed packaging Node.js modules" as subject. A next step (independent, not necessarily by you) could then be to user-tag RFP bugs tied to unbundling, to help prioritize those among the many WNPP bugreports.
