Importer sourceMap

[flops]

It could be a crazy question. But didn`t even found a mention about it. For example json or yaml importers, that mapping data structure to sass variabled in global scope, would be wonderful to pass sourceMap on this step. Or even more sensetive things like import non-sass processed css files from other modules.

Something like:

done({
  contents: 'file_transformed_to_sass',
  sourceMap: 'sourceMap_of_file_to_compiled_scss_file'
});

I don't understand the problem you're trying to solve. Could you please be more specific?

Sorry for so clumsy start.
The question is about custom importers. For example, i`ve got json importer function, that takes json, and generating scss documents like:

('vars.json') JSON:

{
  "foo": "100px",
  "bar": "200px"
}

(converted 'vars.json') to Scss:

$foo: 100px;
$bar: 200px;
// sourceMap = ****

So when i will give the content to importer with scss content inside, there is wont be even a mention about the json file in generated css file. So i`ve been thinking about it, and that would be great to pass the sourceMap data to importer with content. And when you will open a debug tools youl see your "style.scss" and "vars.json" with correct mapping to them.

This sounds like a feature request that should be made in the libsass repo

Another example would be this package, basically it makes sass import globs like @import 'components/*.scss';, but the problem is that in the browser the name of the file is *.scss instead of the actual file name.
