 [http://irclogs.wordpress.org/chanlog.php?channel=wordpress-
 dev&day=2014-06-11&sort=asc#m868005 Yesterday in dev chat], ideas for
 splitting up distinct javascript modules in were discussed. As we move
 towards more and more javascript-heavy administrative interfaces, this
 will prove quite helpful in readability, and by extension maintainability.
 A 6000 line file made up of 50-some views is not easy to step into. A
 folder of well organized modules for one feature would be.

 This will only affect the src/ directory in the develop repository, which
 will use our build process to concatenate into the build/ directory, so
 nothing will change for developers using the build/ directory or the core
 repo.

 We'll start this effort with media, and end up with a standardized way of
 doing this going forward.
