Comment (by azaozz):

 Sorry I couldn't review this earlier (been sick for a while). The reason
 the admin-bar doesn't have jQuery as dependency is that (at the time) some
 themes were/are adding their own versions of jQuery on the front-end, and
 it becomes "big mess" when er also add the version from core.

 The "mess" mostly relates to jQuery plugins that may pick and use the
 wrong jQuery version, and fail.

 That's why the admin bar js has a fall-back mode to work without jQuery.
 Ideally this mode should be fixed and not jQuery added in all cases.
