[LRUG] Cucumber and mass assignment whitelisting

Hiya,

I'm a long time lurker. I'm doing The Right ThingTM with a new project
and it's Cucumber, Machinist, Haml and Sass all the way. Loving Sass
mixins!

My question:

If I'm white-listing my model attributes from mass-assignment with an
initializer in security.rb:

ActiveRecord::Base.send(:attr_accessible, nil)

my tests fail horribly, because cucumber, machinist et al are using
mass assignment to create the test objects.

Is there a way to make the two play nicely together?
