I hate complexity in HTML/CSS/JavaScript

Hi folks,

Is it me, or is it inherently complex and inelegant to merge Plone's 
"legacy" HTML/CSS/JavaScript with a clean and modern HTML5 theme 
configured via Diazo?

I just picked up the Plone again for a new project and I'm stuck by how 
much I hate the idea of Diazo rules that merge HTML/CSS/JavaScript from 
Plone with my theme.

Why do I hate this?

Because before the merge I know what HTML/CSS/JavaScript are included in 
my theme, typically Bootstrap. After the merge "more stuff works" but I 
now have a mess of HTML/CSS/JavaScript to sort through and ponder the 
effects of. Or so my perception goes.

Am I alone here? Are Rok Garbas and others fixing this I hope? Thanks 
for any thoughts. Maybe one simple fix is to document what 
HTML/CSS/JavaScript from Plone are being merged.


Happy holidays to all the Plone,


Alex
