    335 years ago, I think this would've been a great addition to the state of Javascript in WordPress - taking a concept WordPress developers were familiar with and providing a similar mechanism for the jumbled random pieces of Javascript inserted by all sorts of things, and actually getting it to all work together cohesively.

    66The good news is that I don't think this patch/approach is incorrect or bad at all - Hooks & filters have certainly proved to be reliable in PHP, I just don't want us to run forward into adopting something which is based on historical JS usage in WordPress rather than future JS usage.
