It's defaulted to false. But when set to true, the JS is written to the end of the HTML, even though there are earlier scripts.
This results in faster page-loading if the JS isn't needed earlier-on.
The files are uploaded to transifex.com now, which means we needed
to consolidate the file names (= locales). Since Transifex doesn't allow
arbitrary JavaScript structures, we're using an intermediary JSON
format which gets transformed into the JS used by the framework.
See b59f3858af for generator logic.

This allows someone to extends Requirements_Backend and plug in their own minification
of files, including CSS minification. It also allows them to override whether or not
the header comment is written for each file.
Ideally we'll have region-less locales like en.js as fallbacks,
but for now this prevents the UI becoming non-operational
e.g. when both i18n::set_locale() and i18n::default_locale()
are set to 'en_NZ'.
The entire framework repo (with the exception of system-generated files) has been amended to respect the 120c line-length limit. This is in preparation for the enforcement of this rule with PHP_CodeSniffer.
The Requirements class currently treats only absolute URLs as URLs, and
tries to interpret anything else as a filesystem path. This prevents
using scheme-relative URLs for requirements.
Example:
<% require javascript(//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js) %>
This forces the unfortunate choice of not using a CDN for common
scripts, always using an https absolute URL, or accepting that some
browsers will throw a security warning when viewing the site in https.
This change allows scheme-relative URLs & updates RequirementsTest.
Use third party tools like XHProf instead.
Removed defunct or unnecessary debug GET parameters:
debug_profile, debug_memory, profile_trace, debug_javascript, debug_behaviour
2.4 used to use a manifest to find css. One side-effect of that is that even without explicit support,
css files in module-specific themes (/themes/{theme}_{module}/) would get picked up. This broke in 3.
This fix does still require the module name to be explicitly passed as a parameter to themedCSS, but if
you do, and a css file of that name exists in the module-specific themes css directory, that will
be included in preference to the theme or module provided css
