I have to correct my correcting:
Both .attr({"height": "180"}) and .attr("height", "180") will
call .height().

Still there still is big discrepancy between
.attr({ click: function(){/*..*/} }) and .attr("click", function(){/
*..*/})

Adding that there is no (for now) symmetry between
attr("height", ...) and attr("height")
I am afraid, that I will not be the only confused one...
