I think Shoulda can create a printable, formatable spec from the tests
themselves that PM's can easily read. Or is that RSpec? Or do either
of them have that feature? I thought one of them did.

That's about the only practical advantage I can see. And, I think
that's something that could be integrated into Test::Unit if we really
wanted it.
