jQuery.parseHTML() - "context" argument not working

Description

The following scenario not working:

<form id="main">
</form>

<script>
    var elems = jQuery.parseHTML("<input>", document.getElementById("main"));
    $("#main").append(elems);
</script>

Error is thrown because the function createElement() is called on "Node" object (not "document"). In case of more complex HTML function createDocumentFragment() on "Node" object is called. In short, expected only "document" object.

What does the argument "context"? In what scenario it can be useful? As I understand the documentation, result should be added to the "context" after method call in any case.
