So you would delay the whole page just because of some location specific elements? How about render what you got first so the user has something to look at and then fill in your specific bits later?
Possibly. I am just saying that you might have things that are more important to do before the page loads that might warrant putting it in the head. It's not a set rule that javascript in the head is always bad, you just need to know the tradeoff and make a decision.

@redguava ...but you can't come up with a single example?
