Nic,
Actually, it is a bug, at least in the sense that the results are
different from those of any previous version of jQuery.
It isn't just about :first, though. It has to do with multiple-
descendant selectors in general. I've provided a test case at http://test.learningjquery.com/selector-bug.html
with side-by-side comparison of 1.2.6 and 1.3, showing the number of
matches (and I also posted an update to the ticket).

Suppose you have this scenario:
<div id="container">
<ul id="menu">
<li>Home</li>
<li><a href="#">Rules</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Pilots</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Briefing</a></li>
<li><a href="#">IGC</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Results</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Forum</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
$('#menu li:first a').remove() - will do nothing here, since first li
has no anchor in it !
