.attr('checked') does not work as expected for application/xhtml+xml documents

Description

It is impossible to use .attr('checked') to read and modify checkbox states for documents that have the application/xhtml+xml content type. Instead, it returns "checked" or "undefined" depending on whether the checked="checked" attribute is specified for the tag. A boolean true/false was expected.

If the document is sent as text/html, it works as expected.

I have tested it in both Firefox and Google Chrome with the same result.

Example:  http://caffie.net/checkbox/index.xhtml

Try using  http://api.jquery.com/checked-selector/ instead

The true/false magic for .checked is a DOM1 HTML behavior and not supported in XHTML.

Dup of #4283 where it is discussed ad nauseum.

Duplicate of #4283.

Please follow the  bug reporting guidlines and use  jsFiddle when providing test cases and demonstrations instead of pasting the code in the ticket.
