`require jquery` should send me the latest jquery
`require jquery-1.6` should send me the latest 1.6 release
etc.

same for jquery-ui and jquery_ujs

Use case: when jquery is a dependency of an engine, you (maintainer of the engine) don't want to freeze jquery-rails to the supported version of jquery-rails containing the supported version of the required library.

Gem dependencies are meant for lib compatibilities and should not get in the way transversally.
