Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. Start by locating the dependency insertion path in htmltools and determine how scripts and styles are currently placed; done means providing a way for both to render near the end of the body without disrupting existing output.

Description

It would be nice, if there is a way to insert JS&CSS dependencies towards the end of the body tag.

Reasoning:

Putting your script tags at the end of the body tag, after all of the page's contents, means your entire page will begin displaying as soon as possible to give the user something to look at - and then your scripts will download and make everything work.

High priority for me.
