    # This is a wrapper around Rails' `ActionView::Helpers::FormBuilder#fields_for`, originally 
    # provided to ensure that the `:builder` from `semantic_form_for` was passed down into
    # the nested `fields_for`. Rails 3 no longer requires us to do this, so this method is
    # provided purely for backwards compatibility and DSL consistency.
    #
    # When constructing a `fields_for` form fragment *outside* of `semantic_form_for`, please use
    # `Formtastic::Helpers::FormHelper#semantic_fields_for`.

    # @see http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/FormHelper.html#method-i-fields_for ActionView::Helpers::FormHelper#fields_for
    # @see Formtastic::Helpers::FormHelper#semantic_fields_for
    #
    # @example
    #   <% semantic_form_for @post do |post| %>
    #     <% post.semantic_fields_for :author do |author| %>
    #       <% author.inputs :name %>
    #     <% end %>
    #   <% end %>
    #
    #   <form ...>
    #     <fieldset class="inputs">
    #       <ol>
    #         <li class="string"><input type='text' name='post[author][name]' id='post_author_name' /></li>
    #       </ol>
    #     </fieldset>
    #   </form>
    #
    # @todo is there a way to test the params structure of the Rails helper we wrap to ensure forward compatibility?
    def semantic_fields_for(record_or_name_or_array, *args, &block)
