Wrapping unrubyish things behind a rubyish interface so other people can 
do things in the Ruby way without endangering themself?

Of course this doesn't work when the very thing you are trying to do is 
unrubyish and not just its implementation.

Oh, and I didn't define "rubyish" and its opposite on purpose because I 
can't.
