Comment (by auniquename):

 See ticket linked above (and again below):

 http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/22896

 Plugin collisions with other plugins and the core functionality of
 WordPress (usually, but not always in admin).

 I have had to resort to an ugly and inefficient hack to ensure that the
 jQuery I want to use in my plugin does not conflict with the one used in
 WordPress or with the jQuery used by other plugins. And to attempt to have
 plugin with a working lifespan longer than the WordPress and jQuery
 release cycles.

 However I have hit other significant issues with jQuery itself and I am
 attempting to report issues there, but their bug tracker registration is
 broken and I have to resort to their forums.

 Basically, neither WordPress or jQuery is ready for a plugin as
 complicated as I want to produce. I hope by submitting this feedback that
 someday they will be.

 Ultimately the goal is to use multiple jQuery UI themes in a plugin in
 such a way that it does not break anything else and will work for an
 extended period of time with little to no maintenance (see long comment in
 ticket linked above).

 As I see it, this needs to happen. Though perhaps I expect too much?
