Ye, I'm using my own merger/compressor within our projects,
so I can handle those glitches etc. faster.

That's just an idea. As CSS/JS compression is used in the backend,
it may can be implemented in the FE as well; but of course it's very
error-prone, because it depends on certain JS formatting rules,
inclusion order and a lot of other things to consider. (But a lot
of those issues can be handled, but it's a lot of work imo.)

Maybe some of the other things are more important imo anyways.

Thanks,
