Yeah. I'd like to have them use the stories against the mockups they build,
then we move the stories to the live app as we integrate their changes.
These are just some initial thoughts I've had, so I'm always open to
alternate ideas.

One option I thought about was to use pages that don't have any
functionality behind them (other than perhaps some basic navigation), then
they could design their mockups against these. As we integrate their designs
in, we can start adding functionality behind it. This seems more in line
with (perhaps one of) the original ideas for stories.

Would it be as simple as supporting render/assigns, like in view specs?

In the end, our designer/business have programming skills, so I could have
them use example groups; it isn't like example groups are so incredibly
cryptic. When you format as specdoc, they provide a decent doumentation; I
do like stories better, though. :)
