Comment (by nacin):

 I think we'll probably want to just stick with the 1.x branch in core for
 now. There isn't much benefit to having a script in core we're not going
 to use that has the same API as an existing script.

 I had some conversations with jQuery core members back when 2.0 was merely
 a line on a roadmap, and they supported the notion 1.x would be what we'll
 use for the foreseeable future. I'm not sure we gain anything from
 bundling it. Eventually (in 2-3 years maybe) we can drop 1.x, or if the
 landscape hasn't changed much in the next year or so, add 2.x, possibly by
 using conditional comments (so we serve 1.x only for lte IE8, 2.x
 otherwise).
