For all the other things I like about yarn, it still executes build scripts willy-nilly, so I am looking at switching to pnpm. I'm sure my $work is going to love me changing up the build toolchain again... PHP's composer on the other hand requires an allowlist in the project's composer.json. I never would have thought PHP would be the one to be getting stuff like this right.

Still, I think the "allow-scripts" section or whatever it's called should be named "allow-unrestricted-access-to-everything". Or maybe just stick "dangerously-" in front, I dunno, and drop it when the mechanism is capable of fine-grained privileges.
