This was discussed earlier on this list if I remember correctly. A value
of "foo[bar]" for the name attribute is invalid HTML, thus jQuery
shouldn't be supposed to support that from the beginning.
From the HTML spec:
ID and NAME tokens must begin with a letter ([A-Za-z]) and may be
followed by any number of letters, digits ([0-9]), hyphens ("-"),
underscores ("_"), colons (":"), and periods (".")."

Another quote from the list:
"Point being: starting from code that's invalid and trying to script on
top of it isn't going to make yr day any easier."
