passing data argument to .on() fails (1.8.1 vs. 1.8.2 regression)

The only difference between the two blocks is the optional [data] argument to .on()

ie:

formFoo.on('keyup.foo', inputsFoo, checkerFoo); formBar.on('keyup.bar', inputsBar, {'bar':1}, checkerBar); ​ Both work fine with 1.8.1.

There is no signature for .on() that takes a jQuery object as its second argument. ​http://api.jquery.com/on

Please ask for help on the forum for the followup "Then why did this work before?", or simply use a debugger to see what it is doing.

Blitzed.

FWIW, this is how it's used ​http://jsfiddle.net/rwaldron/ssYk4/

ok, totally valid. ... and it is so hard to add a signature for that because?

heck, just do $.selector
