If I use .animate({ opacity: 0.32 }), nothing happens in IE8, but there is no such problem in other browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Opera, IE7, IE9).
There is example: http://jsfiddle.net/ZVdaq/13/

So..granted that this isn't directly a jQuery bug, I think Sindre is right in that the most we should probably consider doing is documenting this. We *could* normalize the behaviour so that it behaves as expected in the test case above, but I'm tempted to second the notion that filter:inherit could be a perf issue. Unless someone feels strongly that this should be fixed, closing.

The first page of Google search is full of solutions on this, and it's a pretty specific edge case. I'll let Google handle it.

Simplified testcase
Looks like the problem occurs without jQuery too, so it's definitely not a jQuery bug. IE8 opacity filter does not want to apply to child elements with position set. I you add "filter: inherit" on the child CSS, the filter applies.
A fix would be to set "filter: inherit" on all descendants that has position set, but that would probably be an massive performance bottleneck. If there are no other solutions for this, I think we should just document it somewhere.
