Description
In an event handler bound for the "submit" event, [this] is the form element itself,
but when [this] is passed through .trigger() using:
$("anotherElement").trigger("customeEvent",this)
[this] becomes the button element that was clicked to trigger the submit event

Tested in firefox 3.5 on linux and 3.6 on mac

The docs say the second element should be an array:
