you should now be able to use .closest(), although i agree, the naming
should have been firstancest or something. closest sounds too much
like a sibling traversal.
i currently constructs like .parents("li:eq(0)") all over the place,
pretty much identical to Karl's sugg. i think i'll be switching to
"closest", but be careful, closest can return itself as well if it
matches, so in a situation like this, they would return the same
results:
<div>
<div id="foo">
</div>
</div>
$("#foo").parent("div"); // should return the outer div
$("#foo").parents("div:eq(0)"); // should return the outer div
$("#foo").closest("div"); // should return the inner div
