All very good points - I would emphasise that for precompiled libraries I
would want them to be in the relevant OS format - ie DLL , dylib etc.  Do we
really need a new precompiled library format specific to RB ?. The ability
to create RB plugins, DLLs and dylibs would increast the range of projects
for which RB could be used considerably.

I also second the method folder idea. This would be very useful for classes
that have a huge amount of them.

It seems to me that RS is slowly making RB version control friendly - but I
think it would be a waste of RS resources to write in their own VC features.
Far better to just add the ability to provide hooks for one of the existing
VC systems.
