There was a problem hiding this comment.
I went with this API so that it's more future proof, as opposed to emptyFallback: true or something similar. This way we can introduce different fallback behaviour in the future if needed without it being a breaking change, e.g. fallback: 'error' or fallback: (args) => { /* some custom logic... */ }. It also nicely mirrors the modules config option, making it clear that it's providing the same result.

The need for this came up in the context of Remix. Since route files in a Remix app contain code for both server and client and go through separate esbuild pipelines, we need to allow imports from all Node builtins in the client build, even those that don't have any polyfills. We then rely on tree shaking to remove code from unused imports in the client bundle.
Right now we handle unpolyfilled Node builtins by marking them as
externalin our esbuild config, but this approach is causing other issues (remix-run/remix#5521). It also means that any unpolyfilled Node builtin imports are left in the client bundle and throw an error at runtime. This change would allow us to remove ourexternalsconfig and fix this issue.Status and versioning classification:
