contains() should only return true if the other shape is completely inside the first shape, therefore if any of the sides intersects, it returns false.

IIRC there's something about Rectangle.contains(Rectangle) not working, because of the way the Rectangle test intersection against Rectangle, but in exchange this way is extremely fast compared to the other shape.intersects(other) combinations.

The best solution I see in this, would be to simply override the Shape.contains with one in the Rectangle class, in the overridden method it should handle the check correctly for rectangles, but use the old method for non-rectangles, sort of like what Rectangle.intersects do.
