This project says "Hey, I have helped make Rails a pain in the ass to use unless you know Rails really well. Instead of fixing this at the core level you can pay me to make something else to fix this!"
What's next? A program to make bundler work better? I expect more from a project like rails. It is like an Xbox game with zero day paid DLC. "Here is rails. Now contribute money so I can make it work as advertised!"
