My 2c on the matter I think Ruby on .NET is great and stuff like the clr_new, overloads etc are a necessary evil to ease working with CLR classes. But I do think that changing a basic construct like include will not be good unless the other rubies also include it. The reason for it is you only use clr_new (which is aptly prefixed btw) or overload etc when you're working with the CLR but include you use in other implementations too and then it won't behave consistently across the board.
