i much prefer florian's syntax, however, i much prefer the code being
syntax checked along with the file. and i'd like to have the ability
to switch on and off the highlighting of the test code. i can't stand
writing code without syntax highlighting :), �'d consider the discussion
of workarounds to get florian in-comment syntax kind of hackish, however
i do much prefer the "=>" etc syntax to the rather verbose "example {}".
at this point, based on what i've seen i'd use florians version in all
likelyhood, but one of my reasons for this is that florians version 
doesn't stop the use of the code where the dependancy isn't found,
whereas until test/unit2 is standard, code using this would require
a dependancy other than pure ruby.
