How about jQuery cssHooks?

Maybe I do not understand the question, but what you are searching for is easily done with cssHooks, without changing css() function.

copy from documentation:

// First, check to see if cssHooks are supported
if ( !$.cssHooks ) {
  // If not, output an error message
  throw( new Error( "jQuery 1.4.3 or above is required for this plugin to work" ) );
}

// Wrap in a document ready call, because jQuery writes
// cssHooks at this time and will blow away your functions
// if they exist.
$(function () {
  $.cssHooks[ "someCSSProp" ] = {
    get: function( elem, computed, extra ) {
      // Handle getting the CSS property
    },
    set: function( elem, value ) {
      // Handle setting the CSS value
    }
  };
});

})( jQuery );
