Comment:

 The current version (at least) of jQuery is smart enough to not
 overwrite/restore an existing `$` function, when `noConflict()` is used:
 http://jsfiddle.net/7cazt/
 Loading jQuery after prototype should therefore not be a problem.

 As it's possible that this does not hold the other way around,
 `wp_prototype_before_jquery()` (for reference: added in [6209] for #5067)
 should stay for backward compatibility, as there might be plugins that
 enqueue both scripts in the wrong order right now.
