Hmm, all of a sudden this thread is spiraling away from my original
question :). Which is good of course :).
I've made some inline comments.

I can see how this would work for you, but I actually want something
more abstracted.
You're specifing the sign_in method inside the same stepgroup, but I
want to reference it from another stepgroup. So, to follow your
example, I want to call sign_in(page, username, password) from my
common_steps stepgroup.
