“helper writers should be able to think of block helpers the same way they think about traditional helpers”

completely agree – so I’ve written a block helpers gem you might find interesting at http://github.com/markevans/block_helpers
( blog post at http://blog.new-bamboo.co.uk/2009/8/14/block-helpers )

I’d love to see that kind of thing in Rails

I'm learning tons from your examples; you must be going for Rails blogger of the year award or something, and you're doing a damn fine job. Thanks again and please keep up the great writing!

As others have said, I'm always for cleaning up the dirty insides even when the outside looks great. I'm really looking forward to Rails 3. This is pretty sweet!
