Critical dependency: the request of a dependency is an expression

It's not a catastrophic error but it is pretty unfortunate having to filter this error in all of my webpack projects that use it.

Would be good if this issue could be resolved.

Can y'all give me more details or steps to reproduce?

@inxilpro if you use the vue-cli to create a new app: vue create some-app then install this repo, import it in a file and you'll see the error specified

Version 2.2.0 should address this issue, although this package really doesn't make sense in the context of webpack, so it might be better to remove the browser-shim altogether down the road.
