Hi Pierre, There are some improvements in this area in Wicket 6. Please read http://wicketinaction.com/2012/07/wicket-6-resource-management/ for more information. Pay attention to PriorityHeaderItem and setting custom header item comparator. Header contributions from <wicket:head> are represented with org.apache.wicket.markup.head.PageHeaderItem.
