Description

Tested on the default Android 2.3 browser, and on the Android 2.3 Dolfin browser. Event timestamps are not being normalised to millisecond values, but in some Android browsers they are reported as Date objects.

Proposed fix in this commit: https://github.com/stephband/jquery/commit/03f7c08a8483bfc44893a38eafb329e47428fe74

Before we bother messing with it, this should be reported to webkit. If they say "no" then we can discuss doing something

We've been trying to wave people off using event.timeStamp since it's also broken in Firefox (since *2004*!). What is your use case that isn't resolved by using new Date() to get the current time in the event handler?
