Oh for fuck's sake, all I want to be able to do is load other .js files 
so that I can modularize things and appropriately manage dependencies. 
I can work around all the other crap. And I want to be able to load 
them via URIs--just as I can currently load XML files over HTTP in 
JavaScript!

Is that so much to ask? The rest of this discussion is just philosophy. 
It doesn't get me any closer to getting my work done.
