Event.data is a global event object

[Nate Cavanaugh]

The behavior I was expecting was that binding data to an even via .bind(type, data, fn) would store the data relevant to that specific item, rather than a global event object.

A quick example:

$(['test1', 'test2', 'test3']).each(function(){ $('#'+this).bind('change', i, selectOnChange) })

Now, when selectOnChange gets executed, event.data will only contain the latest iterator, which leads me to think that event.data is being stored globally for all onchange events, rather than on a per instance basis.

Would it be possible to store this on a per instance basis?
