I see. Well, obviously it's not much of a hassle for me to change the
name of my plugin method. Would have been nice with a small mention of
that in the release notes though, unless there's somewhere else more
appropriate and easily available? It's kind of like introducing three
new jQuery methods in itself, I feel.
And yes, I could've used a prefix or named my plugin method a bit more
unique in the first place, but then I like the short naming of methods
in jQuery in general. $('some selector').sortDom() is slightly
redundant when DOM elements is what jQuery is used for.
Just my thoughts after being caught off guard :)
