Have you looked at RailsWizard (http://railswizard.org/)? Is this more or
less what you would expect from your "rails configure" task? Except of
course that it would be local. I really like the idea. Maybe even with hooks
so others can add their plugin to the configure command? That would be too
much for rails core, but I guess would work as a gem.

Regards,
Andreas
