Description
I'm pretty sure that the name and value attributes of a button element are supported in html, which I guess means that there is a bug in .submit()

Please follow the bug reporting guidlines and use jsFiddle when providing test cases and demonstrations instead of pasting the code in the ticket.
jQuery is doing nothing but trigger the native submit event. Thus, if the name isn't posted, it shouldn't be an issue related to jQuery.
Reopen if you have something else to add.
