I now have a policy that every page contains only one JS function call (in our
case, dojo.addOnLoad() with an anoymous setup), that uses interpolation to
generate the call. Everything else is handled in plain JS files elsewhere.
This helps avoid the nightmare of figuring out what the interpolation is doing.
It also means all our source can be easily checked with JSLint.
