In all honesty, I didn't know gem server existed, and, also honestly, it 
didn't make sense for me that gem server would be necessary for browsing 
an index of rdoc's.

My 'wish' would be something like this run automatically after 
installing new rdoc's:

gem install package
...
package installed
updated index gem_rdoc_index.html

It just makes more sense than having to run a server to browse rdoc's.
Thoughts?
I'd be happy to code it up as a patch :)
