I have to concur that the current behavior isn't optimal. It means the
the two are not equivalent, which can cause issues. I recently
attempted to create a convenience wrapper for Test::Unit::TestCase,
ie.

  testcase :Name do
     ...
  end

But this distinction made it impratical, and I could not figure a
reasonable way to close in the  scope.
