Can't use electron-log in the preload script while global sandbox is turned on

See original GitHub issue

when trying to import electron-log with global sandbox enabled I get this error in the preload script which is causing it to fail to load.

Error: module not found: os

removing electrton-log import seems to take care of it, is there a way to prevent electron-log from loading ‘os’ in for the preload script?

Given that the recommended practice from Electron is to sandbox, and that contextIsolation is on by default, I would hope this is a feature that could be added!
