Comment (by nerrad):

 Worth noting, this problem is not new :)  In the case of Gutenberg and
 blocks, there is some awareness around dependencies management which in
 part led to the creation of this package:
 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/tree/master/packages/dependency-
 extraction-webpack-plugin

 It's the first step in hopefully improving how assets get registered
 within the block-editor (and eventually WordPress) environment.  Also, as
 a part of the block rfc
 (https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/13693) there's some
 discussion around declaration of assets as aa part of a block.json.

 The above doesn't speak to all your points in here but highlights related
 conversations/solutions happening elsewhere.
