I've run into a number of gnarly issues in IE 8 and earlier where jQuery leaves a residual alpha filter on elements after fading them back in. Some of the IE bugs are annoying like odd aliasing around text, etc. This morning though I came across a really nasty bug whereby it seemed like IE was locking up. The actual issue was very unintuitive. Here is a great description of it that I ultimately found:
http://snook.ca/archives/html_and_css/ie-position-fixed-opacity-filter What I propose is when the value of the alpha filter reaches 100, it would be great if jQuery could just remove the filter entirely. This way it would only have issues when fading out or set to specific values. If it were to start completely opaque and then fade-out and back in then this wouldn't be an issue at all. That alone would be a huge win for jQuery on IE. BTW, I've experienced this in jQuery 1.3.x and 1.4rc1.
