Wrong syntax highlighting for spec file: pending 'it' block

Reported by Nelvin Driz | June 12th, 2010 @ 04:54 PM

When I have pending it blocks with the following format, the syntax highlighting is wrong.
Example:

describe 'Something' do
  it 'should do task 1'
  it 'should do task 2'
end

    It also has wrong syntax highlighting with:

    describe 'Something' do
      it { ... }
      it { ... }
    end

    Although I don't know how it happens but sometimes I am unable to create multi-line comments through '=begin' since it would always append tab/two spaces before '=begin' like:

    describe 'Something' do
      =begin
    =end
    end
    

    I think it might be connected to this since I'm guessing the highlighting of the text is bound to how it is interpreted. And through that, it determines if a certain line must be indented or not.
