title: Yii Make jQuery load first
body: <p>Many modules, extensions or other things in Yii try to load jQuery from the asset manager. Which is fine, I've quit hardcoding the include and instead I am embracing 'registerCoreScript'.</p>
  
  <p>The only issue is that it seems to be loading it near the bottom of the HEAD. I have a lot of other scripts and code that depend on jQuery, and they are loaded before it. How do I make sure that jQuery is the first thing loaded??</p>
  
  <p>The truth is I don't understand how it's not the default behavior. jQuery doesn't depend on anything, but lots of scripts depend on it...</p>
