Description

Support exposing a class/method as the default export (module.exports = ...). This is not very easy right now, because our main closure receives "some" exports object and doesn't modify module, so this needs some thought.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how the main closure currently handles the exports object and modify it to support setting `module.exports` as the default export when `@:expose(default)` is used.
