I could seriously use the ability to remove, relative to a module, a loaded module from the cache.
- In my test runner, I don't want to have to append a random query just to reload all the test files in watch mode. - I was at one point running an experiment to try to use JS tagged templates as a template engine of sorts, but I can't really use ES modules because I need the ability to drop them from cache and re-import them manually. I do not require any new syntax (it can just be a built-in exposed to hosts and maybe by hosts like Node), but I would like such a hook exposed. This won't require much in the spec, but it will require three main spec changes: - A new per-realm specifier blacklist (like maybe realm.[[Reload]]) added. - The third requirement in `HostResolveImportedModule` [1] altered to not require idempotence when the specifier is in the current realm's [[Reload]] list. - All callees to `HostResolveImportedModule` changed to also remove the specifier from the current realm's [[Reload]] list if the operation completed normally.
