Thanks for your investigations.

Whatever you decide about equality testing, this bug indicates that you
need to think about the consequences this has to other assertions like
Contains.

BTW, does this bug really address equality testing? The documentation
introduces Assert.Contains as identity assertion, not equality
assertion. Perhaps NUnit is testing equality within the Contains
assertion where it should test for identity.
