Yes, I agree.
Non-obfuscated, non-free javascript is better than obfuscated one, but it's
not enough.

image or style sheet content on some pages.
Minification is no problem, as long as the JS file contains a link to a
readable, well licenced code.
There remains the problem whether this is really the code I execute or not.
In my opinion, there must be explained how the code was converted, so that
people can at least theoretically check if it's true or not.
This is necessary because we don't have the possibility to "compile" the code
ourselves and run our own compiled version, like we can do with normal
programs.
