Hey Dan,
I just created a master issue to track remaining browserify work.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8801
Unfortunately, I haven't had time to really work on this the last little
while.
1) I don't think it should be duplicating adding the JS. That sounds like a
bug
2) It is legacy. Might need to include a transform for it.
3) Is it an empty directory at this point? We should add code to not
generate it or remove it.
Any contributions would be greatly appreciated.
