[MacRuby-devel] Xcode Project Template with Testing Baked In

So, I've been mucking about with MacRuby lately. It's been fun so far.
Thanks to all the devs for this great project.
I'm a pretty firm believer in unit testing my Ruby code. I love how Ruby on
Rails and similar frameworks nudge you in the right direction by baking in
an existing testing infrastructure.

I've got testing pretty much figured out and was wondering if the team would
be open to modifying the basic Xcode project template to add unit testing,
with a stub test and test_suite file to get started. This would also involve
creating a framework for any objective-c code that the user writes so that
it can be included in both the .app and the test files.

In addition it might be useful to include the 'embed mac ruby' and possibly
a macrubyc target as well by default. These can always be removed if a user
doesn't want them.

I can supply preliminary patches if this seems like a good route to go.
