jQuery is a huge, complicated third-party library built on top of standard browser APIs.  As far as I understand it, not being a jQuery user, .prop() sets IDL attributes and .attr() sets content attributes.  This bug discusses *reading* an IDL attribute when the content attribute is -1.  .prop("size", -1) *sets* the IDL attribute, which is an entirely separate thing.

What this bug in talking about:

* Standard: input.setAttribute("size", "-1"); alert(input.size)
* jQuery: input.attr("size", "-1"); alert(input.prop("size"))

What you're talking about:

* Standard: input.size = -1
* jQuery: input.prop("size", -1)

These are separate things.  Behavior differences in the second case should probably be in a separate bug.
