No idea about Rails, but with Engines in 1.x it used to Just Work. What's even worse is that if you include engines and load a model from an engine in your app's model, it gets marked unreloadable, too! So if you have app/models/user.rb require_dependency(File.join(RAILS_ROOT, "vendor/plugins/accounts/app/models/user.rb")) class User < ActiveRecord::Base ... end and you change something in there, you will need to restart your server, too! This really makes it unusable, IMHO. Right now I'm just hacking around it by putting Dependencies.load_once_paths = [] in my environment.rb. It's a hack, but without it really really sucks.
