Alternatively, with namespace imports in JS you can write [1]:

  import * as someLibrary from "some-library"
  someLibrary.someFunction()

Which works pretty well with IDE autocomplete in my experience.

This is a non starter for anything you want to publish online, as it breaks tree shaking which will cause size bloat and therefore slow loading.

I don't think this is true. The example from the esbuild docs uses `import * as lib from './lib.js'` in an example for tree shaking.

Although there are associated issues but they may be specific to esbuild.
