Observable list's length attribute does not update with live binding using dot separated accessors

[imjoshdean]

Ran into this issue today wherein if I have an observable with an attribute that is an observable list, and I want to display the length of that list within a view, it would not update using the following syntax:

observable.attr('list.length')

A simple example can be seen here: http://jsfiddle.net/LRtZc/2/

A workaround for this is to use:

observable.attr('list').attr('length')

Ah looks like it is because of the special handling for the length attribute (it doesn't bubble).
@justinbmeyer What was the reason for that again?

There might be no reason.

Found it: This is exactly what the pull request #112 was about.

I think I'll just add tests to pull request #112 by @iamnoah and merge it in for 1.1.5 then.

I added a test for this, and the test is passing, so I'm going to close this issue as it doesn't seem to be an issue anymore.
