Upgrading to jQuery 1.4.2, adding jQuery UI 1.8.2

I've been thinking about updating to jQuery 1.4.2, and adding jQuery UI. The new update page will definitely need both, but I'd like to update us earlier, so that we can test all the pages which use jQuery before we start introducing new code that uses it. (I think there are what, like five of them? *g*)

Right now we're using jQuery 1.3.2. Here are the jQuery 1.4 release notes. Nested parameter serialization looks incompatible with what we use, but it's easy enough to turn back into traditional mode. We may also need to double-check our JSON output in the future, to make sure that it passes jQuery's stricter JSON parsing. None of the files that use jQuery have JSON though.

So, does anyone know any reason to avoid the upgrade? Speak now :)
