Allow multiple effect queues for animate()

[gnarf]

animate() currently has a queue option, but the only "useful" value it has false .

I would like to propose that we add support for passing a string, which when present would queue the animation in the specified queue like so:

$(".elems").animate( props, {
    queue: "second",
    duration: 250,
    callback: fn,
    easing: "swing"
}).dequeue("second");

Is this something that was submitted for the jQuery 1.7 Roadmap proposal?. It's still not too late to get the addition on there so that we can vote as to whether it should land.
