I know, I don't think it's THE way to go, but I really think we should 
have a BE interface for including the libraries introduced. There are 
already 3 of my projects waiting to be submitted to this list where I 
use prototype and I'd like to use a function like that, otherwise it's a 
strpos($JScode, 'prototype.js') === false, which is a pain in the butt.

It just should be a nice wrapper so people don't have to write their own 
workaround for this.

As the contrib/ directory expands we should, of course, come up with a 
better solution. But for 4.2 I think it's necessary to introduce this 
function. I'm still waiting for some more responses (or better: better 
solutions!).

greetings,
benni.
