I am currently still using bower as a front end library manager. I am also using stealJS as a module loader and bundler. stealJS when using repo's bower.json file to define dependency graph uses the bower.json file in each bower library. The bower.json file doesn't exist which causes an error. I could see an argument for submitting an issue with stealJS to use the .bower.json file that is created when a library is install via bower command line but thought i'd start here

@domenic and I are pretty strongly against maintaining >1 package manifests. If anything, this is an opportunity to put pressure on bower to get on board the package.json train.
