Short answer: no.
Long answer: these kind of leaks are **almost** solved in IE7. A patch
for the JScript interpreter in systems with IE6 also exists, but has
not been pushed as an autoupgrade.
In addition, some real big corporations are still not upgrading their
systems, so we—or at least, me— have to watch out for these leaks.
Anyway, there is an alternative solution in the development code (not
yet published) which improves efficiency by only calling the unbind
for elements which effectively have event handlers assigned.
Best.
