Ah - I get how query_posts creates multiple main queries, what threw me for
a loop in this thread is that I've always seen it done in template code
(where I understand WP_Query is preferred). How would it be done before
wp_enqueue_scripts fires?

So likewise - I always do that in templates. Is the right way to instantiate
the query prior to wp_enqueue_scripts, so the results can be analyzed for
script dependencies?

Thanks as always for the answers.
