Double inclusion of jquery (using Html->script) leads to many problems. I suggest a solution.

Hello all, I've got more of a cake design question that a problem (at this point anyway).

I'm using the htmlHelper and the $this->Html->css and $this->Html->script to make sure all the jquery and other stuff gets loaded properly.  My problem arose when I was using .load() to pull a different controller/action onto a jquery tab.  The new controller/action also included the very same jquery scripts in to the "tab".  Of course, this lead to many problems with all of the javascript.

I would suggest here that the htmlHelper should have the ability to make sure that the css, scripts, and maybe even the meta should use some sort of singleton pattern to make sure they never get loaded more than once.

In my particular case, it was easily fixed, but I can envision situations where I might not have control of the information on the "loaded" page information.

Thanks for listening, and keep of the great work... I really enjoy working with the cakePHP framework.
