Yeah, this is a good one. Theres some debate in the Collector about
whether this is actually a bug or not.

In short, aq_inContextOf checks for nested aquisition contexts. It
does *not* check for nested objects.  It will return zero if you pass
it parallel acquisition contexts, even if the objects are indeed
nested.

Here the acquisition wrappers `iee` and `app.iee` are distinct
objects. 

Here is the full story, and a patch to get it to work the other way.

(This patch used to work, but ive not used it since it was submitted)
