See http://jsfiddle.net/c7UvM/10/. I have two directives, <outer> and <inner>, each of which uses isolate scopes and ng-transclude. The template for <outer> contains <inner><div ng-transclude></div></inner>. This nested use of ng-transclude causes the scope to be wired up wrongly.

What's my use case? Currently, my <inner> directive is responsible for creating a stylized link, and my <outer> directive uses that stylized link to show a specific piece of text. These are completely separate responsibilities, so I'd like to keep them separate.
