Description

Allow Dojo to load CommonJS modules. This means at minimum:

  • not requiring dojo.provide usage.
  • an alias for require = dojo.require
  • an alias for exports as the actual module object.

Some complications with debugAtAllCosts is there, but workable.

Only enable via a djConfig switch for now.

I think it is better to pursue a module loading syntax that works best in the browser, the CommonJS stuff is more like our current loaders, but suffers from the downsides of our current loader.
