The main drawback of this approach is that it is not backwards compatible with any existing code that uses unprefixed require statements.
A benefit of this approach is that the role of autocomplete becomes fairly well-defined.
When `require("` is typed, autocomplete has only three options to display: the `@`, `./`, and `../` prefixes.
After a prefix has been typed, autocomplete will either display defined aliases or local modules, depending on the prefix.
Approaches (1a) and (1b) would be less clear about this, as `require("` could be followed by a string component or one of the three prefixes.
