What do you think about a "dojo.parents(expr: String?)" and $('.nodes').parents(expr: String?) feature.

This feature could be like jquery.parents feature : ​http://docs.jquery.com/Traversing/parents#expr

re: #9111, I agree -- I have .siblings and .children already in plugd, been meaning to come up with a parents() traversal that didn't suck (eg: run a query on a node just to test the selector), but not come up with anything. Definitely should go in plugd while we figure out how to include these in Core Dojo without confusion (also considering there may be a jq-api-shim in 1.4/1.5 making all of this entirely redundant)

these functions are in dojox/jq.js and/or dojo.NodeList?-traverse dojo.NodeList?-manipulate

please open new tickets if functionality is missing/incomplete
