When Tapestry includes a JavaScript library, it should look for an adjacent 
second file that lists dependencies of that library

                 Key: TAP5-768
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-768
             Project: Tapestry 5
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: tapestry-core
    Affects Versions: 5.1.0.5
            Reporter: Howard M. Lewis Ship
            Priority: Minor


Or, perhaps this should be a bit of configuration in some service.  Either way, 
there should be a way that a component can includes a JavaScript file, and 
automatically get the dependencies of that JavaScript file.  For example, I'm 
working on some code that uses Modalbox, and it has a dependency on 
scriptaculous' builder.js ... if I have multiple components that use Modalbox 
in different ways, each of them needs to know about that relationship.

In fact, for YUI this is even more important as each component has some very 
specific dependencies.

This could even be generalized to allow both dependent libraries AND dependency 
CSS (a common feature for Ajax libraries) to be automatically included.
