Description

For example, it would be cool if dimensions.js could provide a cross-browser offsetX, and other plugins could provide other fixes.

You could just intercept it:

(function($) {
  var org = $.event.fix;
  $.event.fix = function(event) {
    event = org(event);
    // add other stuff to event
    return event;
  };
})(jQuery);

This should even work with multiple plugins, as long as the reference to the original is stored in a closure, instead of renaming it to something like "_fix".

A fix-my-events-for-real-this-time plugin would be great. Resources:
