Why is the priority still undecided? This is a serious problem!

I'm unclear what the actual problem is. Does this illustrate it, or is it something else?

This example includes an iframe with just jQuery 1.5.1 and a console.log:

This is actually an IE9 issue (not technically a jQuery issue), and yes it's a serious problem. This happens when you use .wrap() or simple JS that moves the IFRAME - or if you simply have an IFRAME inside UI-Dialog (to me this is the biggest issue).

Microsoft claims they do this to fix a memory leak. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg622929(v=VS.85).aspx?ppud=4.

AFAIK, there's no code workaround for this issue.

Yeah, I'm not entirely sure that this is something that we can fix. I'll pass this along to the IE guys.
