Comment (by Matt Westcott):

 As a tentative fix, I propose that media objects should explicitly
 distinguish between cases where we do / don't care about ordering,
 notionally something like:

 {{{
 class FancyTextWidget(forms.Widget):
     class Media:
         js = {
             ('text-editor.js', 'text-editor-extras.js'),  # tuple = order
 is important
             'color-picker.js'  # set = order is unimportant
         }
 }}}

 (although using a set for this is problematic due to the need for contents
 to be hashable), and the result of adding two media objects should be a
 "don't care" so that we aren't introducing dependencies where the original
 objects didn't have them. We would then defer assembling them into a flat
 list until the final render call. I haven't worked out the rest of the
 algorithm yet, but I'm willing to dig further if this sounds like a
 sensible plan of attack...
