During a web monitoring scenario if a redirection loop within one of the steps is not marked as a failure only as "Unknown"

The server will not detect the loop and drop out with an error rather it will keep following the 302 indefinitely (I'm guessing until the time-out)

Steps to reproduce:

Setup:

• Create a simple location to direct your web monitoring scenario to eg: www.test.org/redirectloop and if desired place some text in an index.html
• Create your web scenario with a single step pointing to the above URL and specify the text you entered and response code 200
• Check scenario is reporting "OK" with 200 response code.
• Add Trigger for "Failed step of scenario X"
• Confirm Trigger is "OK"
• Add a redirection loop. For example in apache2 add:

RewriteRule ^/redirectloop$ http://www.test.org/redirectloop [NC,L]

Expected:

• Web scenario show step as "Failed" after the timeout and Trigger to be generated.

Observed:

• Web scenario shows "Unknown" and no Trigger is generated, huge number of hits to the requested page in the web servers logs.
