Hi Peter, looking through your issue history I can see you've attempted this before with some trouble. This PR is more to start a discussion to see if I can help resolve your issues!

Thank you, @waffleau, for starting the conversation. I don't use bower.

Having built files in a source code repository is fundamentally against how I was taught to use version control. "If it can be built, it does not get committed."

I thought I had set up a repository called maria-bower for this purpose. Using a downstream repository is how I would prefer to distribute for bower. I thought I even registered that with the bower project package system.

That's a good point, and something I hadn't considered! Creating a separate repository is a sensible alternative, but unfortunately searching bower for maria doesn't return any results.

If anyone is interested in distributing Maria for certain package managers, they are welcome to do that downstream.
