Is that possible for you to build the example somewhere else to show the problem? As you have stated that you "Cannot emulate the issue on JSFIDDLE because it involves an iframe and jquery".

Also, is this behaviour intentionally designed?

I would think it's possible to model this in jsFiddle, or at jsbin.com. you just need both pages to be on the same domain. Either site can do ajax. We can't triage the bug report without some more information and a test case.

Okay I see what you're doing now, although it would have to be like this: http://jsfiddle.net/bT33Z/6/

The problem is that you are attaching an ajaxComplete event handler to the parent's jQuery event system but triggering that event in the child's event system where the handler does not exist. You need to attach the handler in the child.
