Comment (by westonruter):

 Replying to [comment:4 JG Visual]:
 > I still have concerns though that the vast majority of developers will
 end up without the best solution. [...] I only learned what the issue was
 by diving into the Core PHP. While some developers might do that, many
 likely won't. ¶ If this won't be supported, should we at least update the
 documentation for the related functions to note the limitations? We could
 also output a message in debug.log, but that might be overkill.

 Where do you think this documentation would best live given your
 experience as a developer who just encountered this issue? You found it by
 digging into core. We do have the restriction on inline after scripts

 documented in a Make/Core post].
