It shouldn't always return True -- it should return a tuple of type 
(bool, dict).  The first element is whether it's inside, and the second 
is a dictionary of indices of subobjects (used only for Collections).  
Unfortunately, this tuple always evaluates to True.  Have you tried 
changing your contains test from ".contains()" to ".contains()[0]"?

If that's not what's happening for you, can you send a self-contained 
example that illustrates this bug?

(I noticed the looking_glass.py example has this bug -- I'll fix that.)
