Support for "input" event in textfield

Description

I think a .onInputChange method would be useful to detect the change of a text input. As it can be shown here http://jsfiddle.net/BenChe/T3mkt/, the modern browser supports the "input" event which is fired when a textfield is changed (nevermind the way it is changed : key, click on old values, copy/paste, etc.) and the event is fired as soon as the value is changed. It does not wait to lose the focus. I think it would be great if a .onInputChange method bind to the "input" event on browser that support it, and use a timer on old browser.

Regards, Thanks,

Benjamin Chevillon

This will most likely not make it into core because:

  • Only support in modern browsers
  • Really buggy implementation in IE9
  • We're trying to minimize the bloat of jQuery

This would be better suited as a plugin or a polyfill, but I'll add it as a 1.8 feature request, so it can be voted on.
