Description

With the new node.js 8.5 ESM support importing CJS modules as if they had named exports is not supported. (Unlike Babel)

Eg:

// bad
import { get } from 'lodash';

//good
import _ from 'lodash';
const get = _.get;

//good
import { get } from 'lodash-es';

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study how ESLint rules detect module formats and implement a rule to check for named imports from CommonJS modules. Look at existing rules like no named as default for reference.
