Did anyone realize that Deferred() is actually almost useless?  It deferrs all script output even in a partial view scenario - which will not be output!

Obviously, you made deferred() so we could get the scripts at the bottom and that is great.  So, when we use Model.EditorFor(blah), we define an EditorTemplate for that.   We use Kendo for the editor template of course and in there we need to put Deferred() so the script will output at the bottom......BUT WAIT....sometimes EditorFor() would be used in a partial view!!!  This means you cannot use Deferred() on any editor templates - which means that almost NO SCRIPTS would be deferred!

Solution:   Modify Deferred() to detect if it is an ajax request and if it is, do not defer the script output.  You could even offer an option to disable that feature in case it messes up a scenario.   So, when you have done this - I WOULD be able to have Deferred() in my example I sent you as well as in my EditorFor() templates.

Additionally, what about a web.config setting to turn Deferred() on by default.
Then we could use Deferred(false) if we wanted it to turn it off.
As it is, we have to put this Deferred() call on every kendo control - when really this is a 'project' type decision..
