Some problems should be seriously taken about lodash-webpack-plugin HOT 2 OPEN

Add the following reasons to the "please deprecate this library" list:

• any lodash errors shown will not even indicate that it could be caused by this plugin
• errors happen in inconsistent environment (e.g not in dev but prod like lodash/lodash#3595)
• it's an "official" plugin so people are more likely to install without thinking of potential consequences

essentially this library will work against any developers who ran into lodash issues, and will only make them debug aimlessly for hours (like I did...)

Totally with you here. This package can do more harm than good. The only way I can see it working is if we could analyse the AST to detect these incompatibilities. It's wild to think that this is an official package from lodash.
