Description

When binding multiple event types at once, the event handler is called ''once for each event type'', instead of one time only as one would expect.

I don't know if this is a bug or a feature, but it might be worth mentioning in the API documentation.

Also, explaining how to remove the event handler would be great too, because calling $(this).unbind(e); doesn't remove it from the other event types.

See the simple testcase for yourself.

Using jsFiddle, it appears that all versions of jQuery behave the same in this regard, except 1.2.6 which probably doesn't handle multiple event types being passed as the first argument of one().

We'll document this clearly.
