$.browser.webkit doesn't include Chrome anymore

Description

Starting in jQuery 1.8.0 the $.browser.webkit behavior changed.

Run these using Chrome:

jQuery 1.8.0: http://jsfiddle.net/wjk8F/1/

jQuery 1.7.2: http://jsfiddle.net/wjk8F/2/

I see that Chrome got it's own $.browser.chrome detection in 1.8.0, but it should still be a webkit browser.

I'd like $.browser.webkit to be true if the browser is Chrome again. Instead, if I should be using the browser specific ones like $.browser.safari and $.browser.chrome just say so. Perhaps for the reason I don't see a $.browser.gecko, for example.
