SMIE comes with Emacs since 23.4 and ruby-mode doesn't use SMIE: I installed a rough first cut at what could become SMIE support, but since I don't use Ruby, I probably won't do it myself and it looks like noone's interested to pick up the work. > That's unfortunate.

IOW I think the problem is that those users should get a life. >> * make use of `font-lock-negation-char-face` for ! Why have a special face for the negation char? What's so special about this char?
