Very interesting!

The same basic concept applies to text objects. A 
Character.characters[0].characters[0], etc. will always be the same 
object. It only works down the parent chain. If you work up the chain, 
the immediate parent will be the story.

I think the fact that it works down the chain is probably a feature 
(i.e. if you do a search you can refer to characters[0] no matter what 
the search returns -- even a Character). The fact that cells work up the 
chain is probably a bug...
