But I hope we'll be "extra concrete" when discussing this part, lots of misunderstandings around this. WebComponents are a great way to "package". They don't solve the "deployment" use cases by themselves. If the goal is "the UX makes only one change and it propagates across Gaia (and contributors app?)" it's a build system discussion more than a frontend discussion :) > 2.
