And an interesting one at that, but I think it would add to more confusion than not. Right now you just have to require 'rspec-rails' in the Gemfile and it depends on rspec, which depends on all the other gems. If we separated out a gem for generators/rake tasks, it would need to be outside the test group, so you'd have one rspec gem in one group and one in another. I spoke w/ wycats about this issue at RailsConf and he agreed that railties in the test group should be exposed in development mode. RSpec won't be the only tool that this impacts, nor would RSpec users be the only people. That all make sense?
