Like the equivalent many other languages, Node.js C++ extension
modules result in unwanted provides that by policy need to be
filtered, We definitely want to provide a %nodejs_default_filter
similar to Perl's %perl_default_filter to make this easy for
packagers.
However, I understand the old guidelines are outdated, and Perl's
macro already uses the new version [1]. Should we go ahead and use
the new version too when implementing %nodejs_default_filter or wait
for the draft to be approved?
Thanks!
