Comment (by neffff):

 I came here looking for this!  I wanted to add an additional
 concern/wrinkle.  In supporting modules (which as noted can be done with a
 simple filter). It seems adding support for the
 [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
 US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/script/type/importmap `importmap` script type]
 would make this a great addition to the script loader.

 This would allow modules to have configurable imports -- enabling sharing
 modules between front/back ends without having to transpile.  I'm sure
 there are other benefits, but this was the one that sent me looking for
 that support.
