    Description

      It should be possible for modules to add HTML to pages of the website. An example is the Marketing Tags Manager which adds script tags at various locations of the main page template.
      It should be possible for multiple modules to do this.
      Ideally they could add full components so that all of the features of components could be used (like Models.)
      The problems with the way Marketing Tags does it now with STK are
      1. STK must have placeholder script and model
      2. Only one module could use the provided "area slots"

      Probably this feature could be implemented in concert with a new theme concept - as the requirements are similar - something wants to add html to pages of the site.

      Perhaps there could be areas (like marketing tags' headerScripts, bodyBeginScripts, bodyEndScripts) that any module can add components to.
