ng2: deep rxjs imports?

[christopherthielen]

We're currently importing from rxjs/Rx like:

import { Observable } from "rxjs/Rx";
import { ReplaySubject } from "rxjs/Rx";
import {Subscription, ReplaySubject} from "rxjs/Rx";

we might be able to do deep imports instead, so people don't have to load the entire rxjs/Rx package.

Need some research on the proper approach to allow users to either load the entire rxjs as a bundle, or build their own using webpack, etc.

I think for ng2 this is an important issue. Here are some suggestions:

• Source repo should be refactored as you mention
• ng2 build should require peer dependency of rxjs as Angular 2 does. Since this is the standard practice it doesn't add anything that this community isn't already familiar with.
• ng2 build should chunk out vendor deps and exclude from bundle

As it stands the overhead associated w/ this is too large for us to use ui-router, even though we desperately want to (the angular 2 router is turning into a nightmare for complex routing).

Where are your thoughts on moving this forward? Is there something I can do to help w/ the builds / refactoring?
