Without ng:repeat

Use the toggle below on and off multiple times and pay attention to the number of active scopes and watches being used.

With ng:repeat

Now, do the same with the following toggle. This one uses more scopes and watches as it uses ng:repeat.

Next, uncomment the jquery script tag in the html and try that again... There is a memory leak as it looks like the scopes and watches are not being destroyed, not sure why it happens only with jquery being loaded though...

Bug summary

So the bug seems to be only present in the case where an ng:repeat list of elements is being transcluded inside something else, AND jquery is used instead of jqlite.
