Accessing Parent Context in Polymer.dart

Question

I have problems accessing the parent scope inside the repeater.

The following code works:

<polymer-element name="x-playground" extends="div" attributes="children parent">
  <template>
    {{parent}}
    <template repeat="{{children}}">
      {{}}  
    </template>
  </template>

  <script type="application/dart">
    import 'package:polymer/polymer.dart';
    @CustomTag("x-playground")
    class PlaygroundView extends PolymerElement with ObservableMixin {
      @observable List children;
      @observable String parent;
    }
  </script>
</polymer-element>

But If I replace it with the following:

    <template repeat="{{children}}">
      {{parent}}
    </template>

it throws variable not found: parent in 770699111.

Is there a way to access the parent scope?
