[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#1030952: npm depends on webpack and 200+ other packages

I'm unfamiliar with the Debian JS packaging process, but based on a 
quick search on npm, it would seem to me that this could be quite simple 
to resolve: Turn node-postcss-selector-parser into a concrete package, 
which would then contain only node-postcss-selector-parser, and depend 
on node-util-deprecate and node-cssesc (the latter being a virtual 
package provided by node-css-selector-tokenizer).

I'm sure I'm not the only one with node-css-loader pinned at 5.0.1 to 
avoid installing webpack just for npm, so would enjoy seeing this fixed.
