Given a javascript library (let's say supportlibrary) which has 100 named exports, I want to create my own pat-library which exports all named exports from supportlibrary but override a single named export with another.

For now, I can export all 99 named exports manually, but this would be a tedious job. I rather would have something like:

import {SupportComponent as ExcludedSupportComponent,...rest} from 'supportlibrary';
import SupportComponent from './MySupportComponent';

export {
    ...rest,
    SupportComponent
}

Is something like this possible using es6 / tc39-stage-x functionality? or is this only possible with CommonJs?

You should be able to do

export * from 'supportlibrary';
export {default as SupportComponent} from './MySupportComponent';

to re-export all of the exports from 'supportlibrary', then export one additional named property that will take precedence over the export * version.
