Description
Trying to remove a DOMElement's "style" attribute with dojo.removeAttr() in a dojo.Animation.onEnd function fails silently in Chrome 13.0 and Safari 5.05.
This is probably only a problem of webkit
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28176
but the framework should provide a workaround for this.
http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/9699
As stated in the jquery ticket - a simple workaround is to first empty the node's attribute and trying to remove it afterwards.
Here are two JSFiddles to punch around:

Given that no one has shown interest in creating a patch in the past 4+ years, I'm closing this as patchwelcome.
I am not sure if it is even legal to remove W3C mandate DOM attributes. I believe it should work only for custom attributes. I'll go over the relevant doc before making my decision.
