Nested Jester Classes Failing

[jfw]

I have receently encountered a problem involving nested classes using
Jester. The situation is as follows:

I have two ActiveRecord classes, category and subcategory with
category having many subcategories.

I have the following in my Category controller
opt = {:include => :subcategories }
format.json { render :text => @category.to_json(opt)

My javascript client code is:
var xx = Category.find(42)

Now what happens is that all the data returns to the client but
category.subcategories is populated with an array of Objects (contains
the correct data) when I would have expected it to be populated with
an array of Subcategory. This has subsequent problems in calling
save() ext on subcategory. I am able to correctly populate
subcategories with further calls to subcategory.find() but this
requires additional calls which I would prefer not to do.

The json (and xml when I tried that) appears to be well formed and the
use of a global Category({checkNow: true}) does not assist in
identifying the contents of category.subcategories.

Is this:
1.An error on my part
2. A limitation of Jester
3. A bug in Jester

Any clarification and assistance would be much appreciated.
