So I haven't had time to fully digest this thread, but a couple ideas/notes from me.
* Bootstrap and jquery are pretty large dependancies, are they needed for something specific? or just easier to do development. http://youmightnotneedjquery.com/ is kinda snarky and old, but does have some good points. * if you use a bundler (rollup/webpack/Parcel/etc) + maven-frontend-plugin, you should be able to use npm install and requires, and not worry about other plugins are doing. Out f the box this has the disadvange of larger bundle sizes, but would reduce any friction. Its kinda what the java plugins are doing anyways, where they have seperate classpaths per plugin. * Shared js deps is kinda how we got in the mess of having prototype on every page breaking things. I know there's no up to date official browser matrix, but since plugins have a lot more flexibility when it comes compatibilty, my suggestion is to use more modern javascript and css, and not need all the frameworks that try to support the really old ones, or at least write modern code, but get babel to backport so it doesn't break old browsers, then we wouldn't need jquery as much.
