Documentation Proposal: Best Practices for Plugin Markup (Progressive Enhancement)

[Scott González]

I think the user documentation (docs.jquery.com/UI) should include the various types of markup each plugin can accept and describe when and why a user would want to use that style of markup.  For example, if a menu can be created from JSON, a UL element or a SELECT element, we should explain the different scenarios in which it makes sense to use each.  This would essentially be a guide on how to use jQuery UI for progressive enhancement.

Thoughts?

Sounds good to me - however, these could also fit into our new Tutorials section.
