Wow, that's really interesting.  Some things are trivial mini-methods,  
eg "def to_param; to_s; end".  But there are some huge chunks of  
complex logic in there!

I wonder how so much duplication got in there, and if some of it is  
justified?

Cool.  Is it still a Rails plugin or can you run it on standalone  
code?  It'd make a great gem with a binary.

Be sure to post when you commit!
