Summary: Nested #have_tag specifications fails on the wrong line number

Initial Comment:
Ouch...  I just spent two hours on this, to finally find that the bug wasn't what I thought at all...

I had the following specification (Rails View):
  response.should have_tag("a[href$=?]", download_asset_path(@asset)) do
    with_tag "img[src=?]", download_asset_path(@asset)
    with_tag "img[width=200]"
    with_tag "img[height=212]"
    with_tag "img[alt=?]", @asset.title
  end

RSpec was reporting a spec failure on the first line above.  After 2 hours of investigation, test reformulating and all, I finally found that the correction was this:

  response.should have_tag("a[href$=?]", download_asset_path(@asset)) do
    with_tag "img[src=?]", download_asset_path(@asset)
    with_tag "img[width=?]", @asset.height
    with_tag "img[height=?]", @asset.height
    with_tag "img[alt=?]", @asset.title
  end

No more errors.  And sure enough:
    with_tag "img[width=?]", @asset.height

again reports the failure against the "response.should have_tag" line.

This is with RSpec 1.0.4.

Bye !
François
