not so sure about the "Finally" claim. been using https://github.com/terkel/jquery-floating-widget for a while, it also has the ability to stop floating when past a certain container's bottom edge. it's also much lighter weight.

I'm glad you posted this. You're right, this looks much better. I'll probably use this over the OP's plugin.
