$.map doesn't iterate through objects

Though the docs expicitly say $.map iterates through objects (http://docs.jquery.com/Utilities/jQuery.map#arraycallback "Map can also iterate through objects as well."), it is not working.

A simple test case is attached. Tested in Firefox 3 and Safari 3 on OSX, Firefox 3 on Windows.

The callback for the object just doesn't run.

I don't know if it's a mistake in the documentation or a bug.

It certainly doesn't look like $.map handles arbitrary objects. It could handle array-like objects though; maybe that's what the docs meant?

I'm going to assume it meant array-like objects, so I've updated the documentation to make this clear.
