I just heard from David Hansson that they're going to start recommending
Ruby 1.8.7 as the default for Rails. I'm not sure if that means they're
going to start using 1.8.7 features or not, but this may be the push
needed to make 1.8.7 a bit more standard.
I don't think we need to leap on 1.8.7 stuff just yet, but it's
something to keep in mind. Largely I think we'll be able to just use 1.9
impls of stuff, modulo behavioral differences where appropriate, so I
don't expect it's going to be a huge effort.
I'm also not sure if we want to completely move to 1.8.7 and drop 1.8.6,
or if we want to add another compatibility mode. Both ways have merit...
