Description

Firefox 6, released today, now has support for the dataset api, which means that it is not in a majority of browsers that jQuery supports. I'm going to begin investigating and researching the feasibility of using dataset in conjunction with jQuery.fn.data()

There doesn't seem to be a benefit to leaving this ticket open, since it doesn't really define any user-facing benefit. As long as we need to support browsers without .dataset we'll need to use .getAttribute() and there doesn't seem to be any upside to introducing a second code path. If someone has code that shows otherwise we can reopen at that point.
