Please remove package-lock.json change and if you could add it to .gitignore

Hi @illuusio, I would be glad to make review changes. However for your request about package-lock.json I would like to understand why you suggest to remove it?

Here is as excerpt from npmjs.com docs (ref):

This file is intended to be committed into source repositories, and serves various purposes:

• Describe a single representation of a dependency tree such that teammates, deployments, and continuous integration are guaranteed to install exactly the same dependencies.
• Provide a facility for users to "time-travel" to previous states of node_modules without having to commit the directory itself.
• To facilitate greater visibility of tree changes through readable source control diffs.
• And optimize the installation process by allowing npm to skip repeated metadata resolutions for previously-installed packages.

Ok it's pretty stupid to have some binary blob in repo but as it's how they roll who am I resist?
