Just curious (as I've only briefly looked at it), what ruby features 
does Kdevelop provide? Is there more than just syntax highlighting?
They share the same syntax definitions, so Quanta has the same Ruby 
syntax highlighting that kdevelop does. (Which means mine will also work 
in Kdevelop for highlighting your templates.)

If the syntax is all you're using, I'd suggest opening your "code files" 
in Quanta. The single cohesive environment might already be there, it is 
for me! Especially now that I've seen how to add the Konsole plugin to 
Quanta. You can run webrick, and generate models, controllers, all 
inside Quanta (as well as kdevelop).

If only the document structure features could be used for Ruby in 
Quanta, that would be nice!

Definitely! Best editor ever. This is the reason I took along time to 
compile Quanta (and other kde apps) on OS X, instead of using TextMate 
like all the other rails heads. That's also what keeps me away from 
FreeRIDE, which does have something similar to the document structure view.
