Ok, then I disagree.  So what if using yuicompressor on birt causes
birt to break.  That's birt's problem, or yuicompressor's problem.  If
it works fine with ofbiz files(or ofbiz files can be changed to make
it work), then why not use it?  It reduces the size of the files, and
in some cases, makes client-side parsing faster.

I'd remove birt(tbh, it's too big, too intrusive), and re-add
yuicompressor.
