I'm not aware of any search path feature in ES6. It just searches the current directory AFAIK. You can do subdirectories and all, but that's it.

This reminds that I still don’t know what is the story of
imports.searchPath (or $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, or $PYTHONPATH, etc.)
in the ES6 universe. Is there such concept in the standard or is
it actually implementation dependent (that would be bad, IMHO)?

I think with
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=694100&hide_resolved=1
getting shorter and shorter (and particularly
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=568953&hide_resolved=1
is even shorter) there should be some discussion on the future
of GJS in view of the emerging ES6 developments (also classes,
etc.).

Best,
