I've been running my app through the YSlow firefox plugin, and have been
*very* impressed on how wicket does the "right thing" most of the time (ex:
gzip css and javascript).  nice work guys!

While digging through the YSlow feedback, it suggested that the javascript
should be "minified".  This led me to the wicket JavascriptStripper, and
after enabling it for my application, YSlow still reports that some scripts
are not minified.

There seem to be a number of javascript compression tools out there, and I'm
wondering if this functionality could be "pluggable" in wicket.  I'm
interested in trying out a few different options to see their results:
* JSMin - http://inconspicuous.org/projects/jsmin/jsmin.java
* Dojo Shrink Safe - http://dojotoolkit.org/docs/shrinksafe

My impression is that the Wicket JavascriptStripper is a great starting
solution, but there are quite a few very advanced solutions out there, and
it would be great if wicket could leverage them instead of "re-inventing the
wheel".  Has anyone looked into this in the past?
