How to copy static files from node_modules with 1.0.0-beta.11-webpack.2

[LunicLynx]

What is the proposed solutions to copy static files from node_modules to dist using version 1.0.0-beta.11-webpack.2?

Actually the only way i found, by looking in the source was putting my static content in the public folder. This is ok for now, but doesn't make sense to me in the long run. I actually wan't to specify a way to copy them directly from the node_modules. This was possible before webpack was utilised, with the angular-cli-build.js file.
If there is already a solution a small example would be nice, if it is planned but not yet implemented just let me know.
Thanks!
