It could be great if this involved a bit of magic, so you only specify the gems you need in a single place.

Maybe it's overkill, but we could rely on Bundler. I'm a Bundler hater turned devotee. It really helps keep a tight grip on a project's gem dependencies, locking versions and all. With the added benefit to pull gems from custom paths and git repos.

I suppose such support could be built on top of a simpler --gem argument in a rake task, though.

Anyway, food for thought.
