The more I think about it the more I think it might be a good idea to require all scripts to be loaded. Without that we might be severly reducing the usefulness of the event by forcing too many users to wait for "load" to fire in order to reliably use functions and global variables provided in scripts. There might also be issues with current implementations would load all scripts before firing the event, so users might become dependent on it anyway. / Jonas
