 Following up on scribu's and azaozz's comments in #15650, would a
 JavaScript Coding Standards page on the Codex (equivalent to
 http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Coding_Standards and
 http://codex.wordpress.org/CSS_Coding_Standards) be useful?

 It would not only include the usual code formatting, whitespace, brace
 position, semi-colon requirements etc, but also clarify on which code
 patterns are preferable for performance, both for the specific dependency
 library, and those that will give the smallest file when minified.

 Another idea might be to introduce a file docblock that outlines which JS
 library or other file dependencies the current file has.
