[wp-hackers] best way to check for bootstrap

[Madalin Ignisca]

Bootstrap from getbootstrap.com is a frontend framework that should be
available normally only on theme level.

If you're building a theme with Bootstrap, you should not worry that it
would be loaded by something else as it should not (if you find a plugin
that does it, well, the plugin author doesn't likes some good practices and
standards).

The theme is the presentation layer and the top layer of WordPress and only
it should handle this kinds of libraries.

It shouldn't be included in the core as there are dozens of alternatives
and Bootstrap isn't a standard, it's just popular; there are others better
done with more features then Bootstrap (well, maybe just my opinion).
