jQuery's ajax method provides a better way to load a javascript, and it

I
think we can implement it to our mw.loader.load. jQuery.ajax provides
two
way (ajax or inject) to load a javascript, you should set cache=true to
use
the inject one.
I guess we could use this when loading stuff from arbitrary URLs in the future, but for normal module loads the mediaWiki.loader.implement() call in the server output works fine.
Client side there is the mediaWiki.loader.using call which allows you to supply a callback, unfortunately there are some bugs in debug mode output and implement gets called before the scripts are actually ready, but it should work for production mode.

What about user-created scripts? mediaWiki.loader.using can only implement MediaWiki built-in scripts which has been registered to RL.
