Rails 4.0.1

"since decorators are considered as sort of helpers, you can also call any ActionView's helper methods such as content_tag or link_to"

This does not work for me, I must to include manually required modules:

  include ActionView::Helpers::TagHelper
  include ActionView::Helpers::FormHelper

etc

I am not sure but I found myself pretty often I need an application url_helpers are included too, in order to use __path or __url helpers in link_to method for example.

I've created a helper module and include it where needed, but I think it would be nice to have it included automatically.

module DecoratorUrlHelpers
  include ActionView::Helpers::UrlHelper

  def url_helpers
    MyApplication::Application.routes.url_helpers
  end
end

and then in my Decorator I do

module UserDecorator
  include DecoratorUrlHelpers

  def some_link
    link_to "Darth Vader" death_star_path
  end
end

Please send a failing test if this still reproduces.
