Nevermind, I think I understand.  For example, selectAllOnClick() is a function I could move into a utility module, since I could use it.  Most of the rest however I think are specific (maybe they shouldn't be).  

A related question -- I take it that stuff like selectAllOnClick or the auto-focus on first input are things I will still be using JQuery for even after I use Knockout? (which I have started in another branch, love it).
