Unless you're talking about running Tapestry without any traces of jQuery
nor Prototype, which isn't supported, then this won't be a problem. But you
raise an interesting point. :) I did research for a framework-free, vanilla
JS solution for reading data attributes, which actually exists (the DOM
dataset property, described in
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Learn/HTML/Howto/Use_data_attributes),
but it's not supported by Internet Explorer 10 and older versions. I'd love
to see Tapestry provide a vanilla JS infrastructure, but browsers,
specially IE, are not there yet.
