New patch commit message makes it more clear :)

I'm not sure what the htdocs directory is intended for exactly. It
seems like static files. But this is a good question to ask given that
there seems to be overlap. I'm not sure what exactly differentiates
the intended contents of these two directories. As for this patch,
patch-list.js follows the current pattern of the bundle.js file being
added to htdocs/js.

The version is specified in the htdocs/js README, so perhaps it would
be nice to stay consistent and remove it? However,
jquery-1.10.1.min.js would continue to break this consistency, so I'm
not sure about what's right.

Personally, I think adding those dependencies in the base.html makes
it easier later when creating new templates as you don't have to
remember which one to add as the number of them continues to grow.
Also, I think following the mindset that more content should be
handled dynamically client-side with JavaScript means that more
templates will be using the library. Actually, I think all of them
should eventually be using it.
