Should Merb's definition of Object#returning also go? Anybody who wants to use ActiveSupport can still require it themselves. Now that Merb is aiming to be ORM-neutral, perhaps extra care needs to be taken with core_ext. Some users won't have ActiveSupport loaded, but others will (e.g. because they are using ActiveRecord). There's a risk that Merb's core extensions may clash with or be incompatible with an ORM's extensions with the same method names. Hash#to_xml and Hash.from_xml are particular examples that spring to mind.
