Description
These two statements (effectively identical) return different elements in IE:
console.log($(":not(body)").length)
console.log($("*:not(body)").length)
Try it on the jQuery home page in IE's developer tools console.

Given how IE sees nodes vs other browsers, I don't think this is something worth addressing.
