I am unable to replicate the problem under win xp with ie 8.0. When I change for example the "site name" it is saved with or without the patch.
I tested it on Windows 7 and IE8 emulation and can confirm the bug.
Any way, use setAttribute() more safe than direct assignment, in this case.
Even jQuery warn about such problem http://api.jquery.com/prop/ :
Attempting to change the type property (or attribute) of an input element created via HTML or already in an HTML document will result in an error being thrown by Internet Explorer 6, 7, or 8.
So if for @waader this patch still work then I would count it as success test 
I have tested this item 
successfully on 7d81098
Successfully reproduced the issue in IE8.
After applying the patch, the 'Save' button worked and the form was saved.
