Does Turbolinks still work, and make page loading faster, when you do this? I am about to try this, because I am having issues using `sorttable.js` in our app with TL turned on

With Turbolinks pages will change without a full reload, so you can't
rely on DOMContentLoaded or jQuery.ready() to trigger your code. Instead
Turbolinks fires events on document to provide hooks into the lifecycle
of the page.

But I found DOMContentLoaded event is actually triggered when javascript
is placed at the bottom of body tag, so for example, DOMContentLoaded
will be triggered if I switch between pages using the following layout:

<!DOCTYPE html>
  <html>
    <head>
      <title>Turbolinks</title>
      <%= stylesheet_link_tag    'application', media: 'all',
'data-turbolinks-track' => true %>
      <%= csrf_meta_tags %>
    </head>
   <body>
   <div id="container">
    <%= yield %>
   </div>
   <%= javascript_include_tag 'application' %>
</body>
</html>

However, the DOMContentLoaded won't be triggered if javascript is placed
in head tag. I read the source code of Turobolinks gem but I still don't
understand why. Thanks!
