Jonathan Locke commented on WICKET-617:
---------------------------------------

We could provide a production mode filter that strips whitespace and comments 
from JS files.  There are quite a lot of comments in good javascript code and 
there's no sense in downloading all that in a production environment.  By 
aggregating all the JS, we can get the benefits of stripping out unneeded 
comments all from a single setting.

> It may be necessary to prevent extra round-tripping for high-traffic sites 
> because most browsers cannot load JavaScript or CSS in parallel.  It would be 
> good to provide a facility where different Wicket components (including user 
> components) can all contribute JavaScript to a single JS download so there 
> are no round-trips.  Failing this, a simple boolean setting that would 
> prevent Wicket from automatically adding wicket-ajax.js, modal.js and so 
> forth would allow people with high-traffic web sites to paste the JS together 
> by hand (without having to maintain a branch of wicket).  Obviously, this is 
> not going to be addressed for 1.3, but it would be nice to consider for 1.4.
