See discussion in #10027 though.

#10095 is a duplicate of this ticket.

Possibly related issue?

// Assign new data...
$('div').data('test', 42);

// Select div by data doesn't work:
$('*[data-test=42]') === []

Replying to Kruncher:

Nope, as documented the $().data() API never SETS data attributes. It only reads them, once, the first time you ask for them.

This reverts commit 6805fc2cd20e36af5c1b0c51f6f39f21cea4609a.

A more cache-friendly solution is in the works.

We will not be directly writing to data-* attrs with the jQuery data api
