This would be fairly easy to do.
What you need to do is create a function that declares exactly what it
depends on, then, you manually serialize everything in the origin, even the
"free vars"
(function outer(foo,bar,baz){ // foo, bar, and baz are injected JSON
strings
return function yourSerializedFunction(){
//foo, bar, and baz are available here, but you need to call
JSON.parse on them
}
})(
'{"foo":"is-serialized"}',
'{"bar":"is-serialized"}',
'{"baz":"is-serialized"}',
)
the above would have to happen in the origin
you're welcome :)
