I don't understand, when I issue the rails.vim command ":Rscript
server thin" the thin server is started in the current VIM window with
output visible.  The behavior is identical to that in a terminal
window which has has the command "script/server thin" issued.

i.e. I can see the output from the thin server as if I were tailing
the logfile and I can stop the thin server by issuing a Ctrl-C in the
VIM window (vimdoh?).

Doesn't this accomplish what you're after?
