cli6rc4 allowOutsideOutDir not works

Versions

Angular CLI: 6.0.0-rc.4
Angular*: 6.0.0-rc.5

Repro steps

“allowOutsideOutDir”:true still not works here (6rc4)?

in my architect.build.options i have:

"assets": [
{
  "glob": "favicon.ico",
  "input": "src",
  "output": "../",
  "allowOutsideOutDir":true
},
{
  "glob": "**/*",
  "input": "src/assets",
  "output": "../assets",
  "allowOutsideOutDir":true
}
]

Data path “.assets[0]” should NOT have additional properties(allowOutsideOutDir).

Mention any other details that might be useful (optional)

this issue https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/10284 seems improve message error but not fix allowOutsideOutDir ?

Marking this as required for the release, but only a decision needs to be made.

Problems:

• yes it breaks because all paths in my project linked to /assets folder were ../assets/images... instead ./assets /images... due to this option activated in v1.7.x but ok this can quickly be fixed with search/replace in my project
• caching assets (styles, images, icons, fonts) once not for each language because they are exactly same
• if application is different their code is not different, because we must today build multiple app for different language, due to current “i18n poor” functionality on angular.

I understand what you said but today I have 6mo /assets folder and it is in all my /{language} folder ! Big dammage, not you think so ?

edit

yes we can! relativly say it’s not related to cli but Angular itself to not support multiple locale in one bundle ! https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/16477 But can’t we let this option here until angular improve i18n? IMHO we should 😃
