Comment (by jorbin):

 > Not sure about this - I wonder how many plugins/themes really need this?
 What about maintaining the additional file and the increase in the overall
 package size? How long do we keep it around?

 If we are worried about package size, as long as we can a place that has
 the no-conflict by default version, there is precedence for loading from
 an external site (see: script.aculo.us. )

 If we add it, I say we keep it forever.

 An alternative could be a core recommended "oldQuery" plugin.
