Yeah, ok, so I can link to the library externally, that is obvious, but how in the world would I place the link in head section so that the page loads the library? There is no way to do this, and am not going to place script tags all over my document structure to load in all the necessary files. That is just ridiculous.
I have copied over the necessary files to the scripts folder of the theme I am using. This loads the files into the head of the document as expected just fine. I then used the Global Javascript Settings to add the initialization code that is required to execute the javascript in the footer of the document. This all works just fine and works as I would expect, the problem is that the Javascript files are not loading in the correct order. How do I get them to load into the head of the document in the proper order?

Ok, so using RAW Headers completely FAILS!
When I use it to include my external libraries, as you have suggested, it creates a script tag that links to the first hosted javascript file in my list of files, then wraps all the other files into the script tag as if they were code, and it wraps my beginning body tag and first few container tags into the script tag as well. So it completely breaks my site layout. Wonderful.
As for jQuery being used already, I can see it used on the admin side, but when I try to simply add jQuery code to the site, it does nothing... at all.
I understand that this system is still fairly new and under development, but if it cannot achieve the simple functions of basic web development, and provide developers with the basic functions they need in a meaningful and easy way, then this is going to cause for problems for my client down the road. I am seriously on the verge of telling them that this system will not meet their development needs due to it's lack of maturity.
