$.removeData could return the data

Description

It would be handy if $.removeData would return the data that is being removed.

Instead of 

var data = $.data(el, 'data');
$.removeData(el, 'data');

it seems more intuitive (and less to type) to have:

var data = $.removeData(el, 'data');

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project! Please provide a jsFiddle that outlines practical use cases for your enhancement request.

Additionally, test against the jQuery 0 GIT version to ensure the issue still exists. Be Excellent to eachother!
