or there can be few exceptions from the rule, just like we have

If upstream supports it (IIRC I saw it somewhere, but it might be
ramp-packer only) that would be great, but I'm afraid it's not the case

as an upstream I'd go even further and make it possible to block loading
modules from client (runtime), but that's probably just me.
