chained :visible selector aborts after the first row on a table with a given context

[rds12]

See this small test case: ​http://jsfiddle.net/QcG7Z/

This line does not work as expected, it only selects one row.

$('tr:gt(1):visible', table)

If you remove the context or remove the :gt(1) it works as expected.

If you first use

$('tr:gt(1)', table).filter(':visible')

it will also work as expected.

If you replace the <table> with <div> and <tr><td> with <span> it also works as expected, so this bug may only apply to tables.

This Bug could be reproduced in Firefox 26.0 and Chromium 31.0.1650.63 and is around since jquery 1.9, because until 1.8 it worked.

Maybe this is expected behavior and documented in the ​http://jquery.com/upgrade-guide/1.9/, but I couldn't find an entry for :visible.

BTW, 'tr:visible:gt(1)' also works as expected.

Looks like a problem in Sizzle; I'll investigate.
