Rails is such a huge community, and Sprockets has to be one of the biggest pain points for many years. My solution after years of agony has been to just throw it all out, and use a diff asset packager underneath rails. Really happy that people are taking this issue on. Wish I had the time to help out.

Given how much modern js development depends on node and npm, I think using a different asset packager is the most sensible way to go.

Re Sprockets, I found this recent talk at RailsConf about the history, problems, and future of Sprockets maintenance and development to be an interesting read: http://schneems.com/2016/05/31/saving-sprockets.html http://schneems.com/2016/05/31/saving-sprockets.html
