Item11778: FindElsewherePlugin prevents jquery.json.js from loading

Using the FindElsewherePlugin causes jquery.json.js not to load. This is needed by Extensions.EditChapterPlugin to work correctly.

Confirmed. On a default install of 1.1.5, with EditChapterPlugin installed and working, it's sufficient to just enable FindElsewherePlugin, and the jquery.json.js file disappears.

The following lines are removed from the rendered topic:

...
<!-- [if lte IE 7]>
<script type='text/javascript' src='/pub/System/JsonRpcContrib/json2.js?version=1.0'></script>
<![endif]--><!--JQUERYPLUGIN::JSON2-->
...
<script type='text/javascript' src='/pub/System/JsonRpcContrib/jquery.jsonrpc.js?version=1.0'></script><!--JQUERYPLUGIN::JSONRPC-->
...

This didn't only remove json2.js but also a slew of other stuff being added to the html head later on in the init process of the engine.

The error basically is caused by FindElsewherePlugin calling expandCommonVariables() inside its initPlugin() handler. This turns out to be a BadThingToDo_(tm) as other plugins arent fully initialized yet.
