What about .jsm modules ? Or is that not really considered ?

I have been told that ES6 modules may help to solve some of the problems
covered by .jsm but I don't see how you can create a ES6 module that is can
be accessed from multiple js context from the same origin. Mostly
interested as it would be nice to be able to write a module once and share
it between multiple tabs instead of having to reload the same JS script for
all similar tabs, like all the bugzilla tabs many of us have open for
example.
