Support for JavaScript concatenation

[emartin24]

I realize concatenation is already supported, but I believe it is only in the admin section.

What I am looking for is a way to use a concatenated file, but still utilize the features provided by wp_enqueue_script().

I started a discussion on wp-hackers:
​http://groups.google.com/group/wp-hackers/browse_thread/thread/1b431b699bfa2eab

I realize the complications of automatically concatenating files, dealing with plugins scripts, headers, footers, etc. However, I still think there should be a way to make it work.

One idea is to allow us to pass in the same source file for wp_enqueue_script calls, which would allow the scripts to be registered, but then the print scripts function would only print out 1 line for the single file.

Anyway, just wanted to open it up for discussion and see if there were any other ideas/suggestions/alternatives/etc.

I believe this ticket is a duplicate and is best to be discussed in 3372.

Added description to #3372 of a plugin solution called “Optimize Scripts”: ​http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3372#comment:29
