[ui dialog] Showing a modal dialog on a radio button select in IE (7 and 8) bug

[srepciuc]

I wanted to reproduce this bug with the latest version of jQuery ui but both 1.5b3 and 1.5b4 fail to work at all in IE for me.

I have two radio buttons on a page. When I select one of them, I want a dialog to appear. I set it to be modal. In IE both 6 and 7, when I click the radio button, the dialog is displayed, but the checked status of the radio buttons is lost. I saw there were some similar bugs in the past.

The bug shows only when modal is set to true

The fix for this ticket needs to be reconsidered and either fixed for performance, or reverted. The cure is worse than the disease.

This line causes massive slowdowns on any page of moderate to large size: $('a, :input').add([document, window]).unbind('.dialog-overlay');

The binding of all the dialog-overlay events is fast, but unbinding them all is a huge slowdown. You'll encounter it when you fire off the close event of a dialog, which fires the overlay.destroy().

Just to clarify, I'm refering to ui.dialog.js. Lines 557-578, and Lines 605-607. These are marked as being a fix for this issue (2804)
