> Tapestry should catch downloads of JavaScript libraries, and should "pack" the JavaScript ... remove comments and unecessary whitespace.  I believe Dojo has a library to do this, it may even shorten variable names (!).
> A smart implementation of this would manage to cache the compressed JS, and notice when the uncompressed version changed.
