jQuery find by ID fails when ID contains dots / "." / periods

Description

jQuery does not find the ID "foo.bar" whereas document.getElementById() does.

This is a major bug because it makes jQuery incompatible with existing sites/frameworks/libraries (like the one I am trying to minimally retrofit over jQuery).
