Sorry - there's nothing right now. I really didn't think anyone was
using this - I know RSpec wasn't in any of its formatters. There's an
RFE for adding hooks before setting up and after tearing down each
behaviour and/or example. Would that do the trick for you? If not, go
ahead and add a new RFE to reinstate spec_started.
