Optimize jQuery.expr.filters.hidden
in Developing jQuery Core

Hi,
Wouldn't it make sense to alter the order of the expressions in jQuery.expr.filters.hidden to only do the expensive work (elem.offsetWidth) after evaluating the parts that don't trigger a reflow? In the case the element is determined to be hidden by the style, it does not trigger a reflow anymore, what would be a nice behavior for a hidden element.
So instead of
return ( elem.offsetWidth === 0 && elem.offsetHeight === 0 ) || (!jQuery.support.reliableHiddenOffsets && ((elem.style && elem.style.display) || curCSS( elem, "display" )) === "none");
do
return (!jQuery.support.reliableHiddenOffsets && ((elem.style && elem.style.display) || curCSS( elem, "display" )) === "none") || ( elem.offsetWidth === 0 && elem.offsetHeight === 0 );
