#15782 closed enhancement (wontfix)

Consolidate header Javascript

Description

As a followon to #15781

Currently there is a block of Javascript required on all admin pages, this is stored directly within admin-header.php, and iframe_header(). Unfortunately, when someone changes/adds code to one, the other is not always updated.

This inline Javascript should be moved to a function and printed on a header action in order to reduce code duplication and prevent future issues.

At first look the patch seems right, it removes few duplicate lines of HTML and replaces them with two PHP functions. However at closer look it actually adds more code instead of reducing it.

It also seems to loose the $hook_suffix global which seems to be redundant in the first place as only the $admin_body_class global is needed in the script. Another weakness is that the patch allows defaults to be overwritten. These JS globals should be consistent and exactly the same as the PHP globals.

Perhaps a better approach is to just output the script as it is in the admin head at the moment, without much PHP processing.

I just tried to come up with a fresh patch, it's not really worth it at this point.
