jQuery 1.4.2 and 1.4.4 break forms - preventing browsers from "remembering" previous values

jQuery 1.4.2 and 1.4.4 break forms - preventing browsers from "remembering" previous values

Normally, if you fill in some form values, hit submit, then press BACK, your previous values are still there.

However, if you add jQuery to your form, then browsers no longer remember your previous values.  From what I've read this is because jQuery hooks the unload event, and this is a signal to browsers like Chrome and Firefox that the page is not backwards-forwards-cache aware (bfcache).


Is there a fix planned? Or can anyone think of a work around?

Thanks!
