title: Developing web components with external dependencies?
body: <p>I would like to create a web component which is an auto-complete combobox, but since there is no such thing natively, is it considered bad practise to make a web component which also depends on a third party library or libraries? </p>
  
  <p>I've only had some minor involvement with Polymer a year ago, and now that v1 of the spec is out, I'm looking at them again. It seems to me that most people develop web components that are 100% plain javascript with no external dependencies, but given the state of UI controls available, that would make for some very plain-Jane components.</p>
