This might help some of you and definitely worth checking out : http://www.cheezyworld.com/ He has a couple of pages now on cucumber and browser testing, developing a page based framework. Taza https://github.com/scudco/taza is a framework I've architected and used in several large companies, which has many of the same concepts that people are moving towards - e.g. page and site models. Please do check these out, use them and try not to reinvent your own framework.
Ruby has builtin support for a base test library - a few of us have added additional test frameworks on top of that which are used in heavy large scale application testing with AJAX and all the goodness from years of experience. Cheezy's posts are a build up of real life experience using Watir and Cucumber on various client sites. I'd highly recommend following them, there are several more coming. I'll drop a hint, Taza is an awesome framework for web ui testing, well used and also extensible. If you want to get involved in either Taza or Watir, we've got a lot of work to do, and I'm happy to mentor from the newbie on up.
