To be honest, that was my biggest hesitation in developing the site.
Pissing people off is the _last_ thing I want to do. On the other
hand, since (a) lots of gems need better (or _any_) documentation, and
(b) gems are licensed in such a way that allow for reuse like this, I
thought I'd give it a go.

Ideally I'd like to see a way for authors to opt-out of the system
upfront, so I don't even need to bother with importing and them
removing it.
