[Rails] Putting it all in one place with Schemas

[Sorenson]

I'm still relatively new to ROR, but I like what I see with the 
database-neutral approach of Schemas.  In the spirit of keeping it 
simple and minimizing the number of files and location of information, 
does ActiveState currently allow me to go ahead and place other low 
level model information such as validation requirements and associations 
inside the schema rather than putting it in a separate file which 
specifies the "model".  In this schema-as-model scheme, ActiveState 
could import this information into the model along with other schema 
information and ActiveState models could automagically appear without 
having to create separate model files.  Of course additional model 
functionality that isn't so close to the DB could still be kept in a 
separate model file.
