but I was hoping for a bit of a simpler solution.
Running multiple Rails apps on the same domain is something that in general seems quite tough to do. I think this is an issue that needs resolving by the rails-gods at some point as it could be hindrance to rails growth. Otherwise it's easy to draw comparisons with PHP where you just stick your apps in different folders under your Document Root (or use symlinks) and voila. Don't get be wrong, I'm definitely a Rails fan, and this isn't meant as a Rails vs PHP, but just pointing out something that is quite tricky in Rails - a framework which thrives on simplicity. It seems it should be as (relatively) straightforward as the rest of Rails is. Especially because Rails lends itself to creating little apps that each do their own thing well, but then at some point you want to combine them or mix and match, etc.

maybe you can hack the mongrel_rails script to setup a rails handler for each app? camping does it this way anyways
