Considering the fact that a lot of people add simple bootstrapping routines in their migrations, it seems to make sense to me for db:reset to NOT run off migrations and to use the same name for the task that uses migrations to db:reset WITH=migrations (schema would be default) or db:reset_with_migrations.
Since the 2 task (reset by schema or migraitons) provide similar functionality, just by different means, it makes sense to have that association by name. So as you can see I don't agree with the new name 'migrations:reset'. No input on db:redo. Additionally, I think it would be handy to have a task that, based a list of tables as arguments, drops the table and creates it again based on it's migration file. Would anybody else find this handy?
