jacquesm, maybe you didn't want to wade into the details too much, but
you didn't mention a major attack vector on third party scripts, namely,
the transparent caches run by nearly all ISPs. Also, unless a third
party script is served over HTTPS to users, regularly verifying the
scripts is useless since _your_ ISP will give you _their_ cached copy,
and similar is true for all site users. Transparent CDN's are another
consideration for related caching problem.
