I think the File Groups plugin is useful for Rails, but not for an ordinary 
Ruby project so much. So perhaps it would be nice to have a different set of 
plugins enabled for Rails. I certainly want to do a generator wizard plugin 
that would only be for Rails projects, and not for ordinary Ruby ones. 

I can add 'File Groups' and 'Quick Open' back to the default Ruby profile, and 
we're still not too cluttered. I think some things in 'Quick Open' looked C++ 
specific, which was one of the reasons I disabled it.
