$this->document->addScriptFooter()

[dhaupin]

Tons of things require putting scripts into the footer. As it stands, this cannot be achieved unless using a vQmod, which turns footer into an inconsistent pile o scripts that are inserted too early (often before <?php echo $footer; ?> which is the wrong spot). Instead it would be nice to be able to insert via controllers just like the other $this->document methods. Adding would be simple:

public function addScriptFooter($script_footer) {
    $this->scripts_footer[md5($script_footer)] = $script_footer;
}

public function getScriptsFooter() {
    return $this->scripts_footer;
}

Easily defined in footer.php to be called in footer.tpl right before the closing </body>. Again, sorry if its the wrong place, its just a suggestion for an uber useful method.
