I'm going to close this as a wontfix, not sure we can do anything about data on text nodes. If you have a test case showing that jQuery is trying to assign data to a text node, please reopen and attach it.

FYI 1.8.3.

I'm doing some test to handle runtime languages and backup the original text template in the data of the same textNode come in handy, the following example work for all the major browsers I'm checking (IE9 also) but not IE/6/7/8.

IE8 stop on line 1569: elem[ internalKey ] (internalKey is defined), same error as above "Object doesn't support..."
