  Girocco uses MooTools, and I also used it in an old private branch
of gitweb. I have had pretty good experience with it. But since I wasn't
able to find anyone to maintain Girocco's gitweb (or even keep it in
sync with upstream) and the patch flow to core git has dried up, it's
probably not too relevant argument. :-)

  It seems most common sense to use CDN by default but allow providing
pre-downloaded file with the library at build time as an alternative.
