When using "attributes=" for an object with a accepts_nested_attributes_for 
a model
that has a has_many relationship will cause the has_many array to be 
appended-to
instead of being replaced as would be expected by a straight assignment 
operation.

See this example:

class Member < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :posts
  accepts_nested_attributes_for :posts
end

class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :member
end

m=Member.new
p={:name => 'joe', :posts_attributes => [{:title=>'t1'},{:title=>'t2'}]}

m.attributes = p
m.posts.size ----> 2

m.attributes = p
m.posts.size ----> 4

Is this a feature or a bug?  If it is a feature, how is it supposed to be 
used?
