I think this is a case for the Web Assets feature [1] and in my opinion
you should start using versioned package names (jquiry-ui-110,
jquery-ui-111, etc), because there might be others with different
requirements, eg. Kimchi (currently under review [2]) uses 1.10.3 (I
hope try are at least compatible among the micro versions)
