On top of what David said, a tool that compares spec lines commented out vs. not commented out doesn't need to hook into RSpec at all. It sounds like a potentially useful tool for the sorts of projects you've seen; what's stopping you from building it as a standalone tool? To me, it's a totally orthogonal concern to what RSpec does (e.g. run your tests), and feels like it belongs as a rake task that your build would run. Given its orthogonality, even if a large percentage of RSpec users found this useful, I'd still think it belongs in a separate gem. We want to keep the core rspec gems nice and slim, and provide plenty of extension points for folks to build additional functionality on top of that.
