Hi, Jim! Thanks for the ideas, which I agree would be great for an advanced Drupal book. Unfortunately, this one is (a) too elementary for such subjects, and (b) already written. (Well, it needs a complete revision to match Drupal 7's new interface, but the basic text is there.) Sorry.
But you're in luck! Matt Butcher has written a book specifically about Drupal and jQuery: Drupal 6 JavaScript and jQuery. And I understand that Aaron Winborn's book Drupal Multimedia also has some stuff in it about jQuery.
