Geb, waitfor unexpected affect the behavior

I have found very strange behaviour of Geb library.

Below is example of my test:

Then(~'I should see that I\'m logged in') { ->
    assert browser.find('div#loggedInBlock').isDisplayed()
}

It works OK, but I'm concerned about timeouts since it needs sometime to execute js and load etc, so I modified my code like here: 

Then(~'I should see that I\'m logged in') { ->
    browser.waitFor() {
        assert browser.find('div#loggedInBlock').isDisplayed()
    }
}

So I expect it will work if there will be some unexpected delays. But I got error here - this condition unexpectedly doesn't pass. If I return my code back and delete 'waitFor' it works good again.

So I'm confused, why is this happening?

Since Geb 0.7.0 contents of waitFor blocks are implicitly asserted meaning that you don't need/shouldn't use assert keyword inside of them. Have a look at implicit assertions section of the Book of Geb to understand what this means.
