I understand that, so just add that property to alias module.
Ok, I tried that but then it fails parsing the alias module.
Apparently the schema for a module-alias doesn't allow properties.
But I think that adding that metadata to alias will *not* result in
WARN
message at boot time if anyone is using the module.
AFAIR doing ModuleLoader.loadModule(aliasModule)
will return the module to which alias is pointing to, as result we cannot
read metadata of the alias directly.
David can correct me about this.
Our need is only short lived, so no big deal to not have such a thing.
Although I would think others might need such a mechanism too?
Let me know if it's worth opening a feature request.
Thanks,
Sanne
