I'm having all kinds of problems with the backwards compatible plugin your team has released.
I'll load both jquery.1.4.js and the compat plugin.
The first error:
It produces "windowData" is not defined.
If I comment out your jQuery.data function and reload the page, then the jQuery.fn.init causes the whole page to become a single event, which triggers a "Want to bookmark this page" in Firefox.
If I comment out the jQuery.fn.init function, then the page half works, and causes even more errors.
And firebug isn't showing me the solution...

P.S. I'm hoping this is an issue with my code, or the way I've coded something...
