Hi Christophe,

thanks for your investigation.

Instead of tracking them down, we should not set them at first.

If this is true, We probably need to change the way the _kukitmark is 
handled. uniqueId cannot likely cause leaks on IE, because it is a 
builtin on IE, and we only set those attributes on FF.

In addition, I am worried if setting a normal attribute causes a problem 
on IE as well? Or are those deleted for sure when a node is deleted?

Is this only on IE? And what version exactly?


Best wishes,
