9071	Load scripts in footer option	robertaccettura	anonymous	"Steve Souders Rule #6 is to put JS on the bottom[1].  While it's not always practical (especially for an existing codebase) it should be possible for themes to define how JS loads, in particular jQuery.

It would be cool if there was an ability when developing themes to defer jQuery to the footer.  This is a potential performance improvement for some slower sites.
