What I feel looks interesting with "on rails" is that you get things like database management built in, like setup, upgrades aso. Of course, this also means that it might be difficult to jump off the rails if you need that. And even if I feel like I'm not the target audience, since I prefer to pick and choose smaller libraries, I'm watching this with interest since Ruby on Rails seems to be quite popular.
As a non-Rails-developer running some apps based on it long-term the most annoying thing about Rails when trying to debug an issue in a code-base that isn't yours is all the auto-magic stuff where the usual way to find the function called doesn't work because it is magically auto-generated in the background somewhere out of strings concatenated together.
