Right, that is how I am doing it for lack of an better solution, but
find it a bit hackish, especially when the javascript gets large.
Moreover the javascript could be cached by the browser if it was not
directly inline in the HTML.

There may be a misunderstanding in my use case : I was talking about
javascript that would be served by fossil, not by a CDN or whatever
server (so that fossil continues to operate offline).
As of Bootstrap, it would be perfectly OK to have Bootstrap css/js
served by fossil, there is no requirement to get it from internet. And I
am not trying to push for the use of Bootstrap, it's just that it's
really hard to get CSS right on multiple browser (at list for a casual
stylesheet writer like me) !
