Description

First of all, this is a great package and it has shorten my development by a lot as I move a lot of long running tasks in the background like sending SMS or uploading to S3.

But if there is one part that we can improve, it is with dynamically importing this package in the client. In my case, less than 5% of my users actions use background jobs but it is the 5th biggest resource being downloaded.

Is there a possibility to setup the package for dynamic import as supported by Meteor since 1.5?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate Meteor's dynamic import API and modify the package to allow dynamic imports of specific modules like job definitions, reducing client bundle size. Study existing Meteor packages that support dynamic imports as examples.
