compile flag to disable 'use of internal package not allowed' #19144

Sorry, we're not keen on adding flags to begin with, much less to support behavior that we don't want to encourage. You clearly need something, but I don't understand your problem enough to suggest what it might be. This feature request sounds like it might be an XY problem (http://xyproblem.info/) Let's understand the problem before we jump to solutions. The mailing list or slack (see https://golang.org/wiki/Questions) would be a better forum. |

What did you do?
I have a code generating tool which creates a main that imports (almost) all pkgs it inspects.
This generated code is deliberately ignoring all "internal" boundaries otherwise respected in normal code, running into
imports XXX/internal/XXX: use of internal package not allowederror when compiling.I would like to add a flag to the go compile command to disable the "internal" check.
Disabling the use of disallowInternal is enough to stop the issue.
I currently run a modified go build with this disabled but I imagine others would benefit from having this option - even if normally discouraged.
What did you expect to see?
