+compiler API is still exposed there, other bundler plugins don't share
+it.  There's a new `vue-component-compiler` being developed, but it's
+not ready yet.  That means we're left with 3 *separate* SFC
+"compilers" that are fairly tightly coupled with the bundle system
+they're designed for.  I'm sure they don't contain any nasty

+ - Browserify (`vueify`): Vue 2.5.0 (2017-10-12) added the ability to
+   write Functional Components as SFCs.  That is not yet supported in
+   vueify.  Three months isn't a long time, but we can surmise that
