In Watir the locating of the element will be done automatically - why not use the same approach in Watir-WebDriver? Is there any good reason to do that?
It just sucks that i can't write code similar to this in watir- webdriver: container = browser.div # do something, which obsoletes the element, but makes it exist again container.do_something # this should work As i understand from your gist then #do_something won't work unless i specifically tell again that container = browser.div. Why?
