destroy() function?

[peluja1012]

select.js seems to be causing memory leaks in my application. I noticed in the code that a handful of event listeners get attached but they never get removed. Do you plan to add a destroy() function that cleans up all the event listeners?

Having it clean up after itself would be huge!

Yes this would be awesome for SPAs. I know you guys do a lot of Backbone work, how do you get around this issue?

Same for Drupal that rebuilds DOM elements when forms get submitted through AJAX. Through JS detach functions one can destroy elements before content is being replaced.

Tether does have a destroy function btw.

Indeed, this should be fast tracked. Anyone working on a PR?
