{{each}} is slow when not wrapped with element

The {{each}} command is pretty slow when used with the newest forms of jQuery. In jQuery 1.5 and up the following template is very slow.

{{each elems}}
  <p>{item}</p>
{{/each}}

Right now, the fix is to wrap the {{each}} in an element:

<div>
{{each elems}}
  <p>{item}</p>
{{/each}}
</div>

The reason for this speed issue seems to be a change in how jQuery compares siblings.
