babel-plugin-ember-modules-api-polyfill won't be needed when ember-source is finally released in a sane way, yeah? :)

If I understood correctly, SWC does not support plugins, and that continues to be a blocker for ember support?

SWC supports plugins.

We need to migrate the babel plugins.

Would like to assist if we are working on swc plugins for Ember.

@stefanpenner - is there any update on this? We're seeing pretty slow build times with Babel, and looking for any improvements we can get. Would also be happy to assist if there are things we can look at.

I am not working on this, so if someone wants to move it forward I would be in full support.
I may revisit this in the future (maybe a year from now) but I'm not sure.
