I'm all for removing Prototype wrapper methods.

Granted, this kind of wrapper serves a learning purpose. But that's  
not necessary everywhere, and certainly not in the main Nitro  
distribution.

Using jQuery, the beginner can learn these things (DOM-fiddling, Ajax  
calls, structure) without the "support wheels" of wrapper methods in  
the web framework.
