Very exciting! I have been slowly removing jQuery from many web apps over the last several years and its good too hear that Bootstrap wants to get there too :)
Now obviously removing jQuery would be a major revision and break the current API. But are there any particular pain points in removing jQuery as far as features go?
A cursory look at the source code (/js/src/*.js) shows that most jQuery usage is simple $(el).hasClass('foo') or $(el).on(evt, handler) so those ones are easily replaced by the native APIs.
Maybe the harder parts to replace are $.data or $.event?
