The problem with that is that when I do {{ form.media.js }} (or
whatever media output stuff I need to do) at the bottom, I'm going to
have included jquery twice since jquery is a requirement in the Media
class of any widgets/forms that need it. The trick is trying to not
have jquery in there twice.
