Comment (by scribu):

 > This would break because jQuery would be forced to the footer, while the
 other script would print in the header:

 {{{
 wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
 wp_enqueue_script( 'something-that-uses-jquery', 'something-that-uses-
 jquery.js' );
 }}}

 I was thinking more of scripts that didn't use `wp_enqueue_script()` at
 all, but yeah, I've seen this pattern enough times to agree with you that
 it wouldn't be a good idea.
