Description Ori Livneh 2013-12-06 07:50:51 UTC 
Without TimedMediaHandler / MWEmbedSupport, the set of modules that loads in <head> (blocking the appearance of content) is limited to the core 'mediawiki' module and jQuery. With TimedMediaHandler / MWEmbedSupport, the modules "mw.MwEmbedSupport", "Spinner", "jquery.loadingSpinner", "jquery.triggerQueueCallback", and "jquery.mwEmbedUtil" are loaded as well.

The only reason I could discover for loading these scripts in <head> is to be able to insert HTML5 element shivs for IE<9.

* These scripts shouldn't load at all on pages that do not contain timed media.
* When they do load, they should be loaded in the bottom queue, like ordinary modules.
* If the HTML5 shiv is necessary, it should be moved to a separate module which contains nothing extraneous and which is loaded only on the pages that need it.
