Proposed removal of accurateIntersection option in Sortables

[Paul Bakaus]

Hey everyone,

we recently had the discussion already about hat to do with the accurateIntersection option in Sortables. For those that don't know
the specifics, the only change this option brings is that if set to true, outerWidth/outerHeight is used instead of offsetWidth/offsetHeight
for offset calculations.

Now it seems that jQuery UI 1. 7 will most likely include jQuery 1.3.2, which brings major performance gains in the outerHeight/outerWidth
methods, so I propose we remove the option entirely for 1.7 already (and default to using the outer* methods).

Just tested this in Firefox 3 and IE 6, the performance is much better.
