Yes, my fingers are eternally grateful for this feature. Also, if
you're using RVM and don't like the idea of having a relative entry
lurking in your PATH, you can add it as an absolute entry on a
per-project basis in your .rvmrc:

rvm 1.9.3 at whatever
export PATH=/path/to/project/.bundle/bin:$PATH

RVM will add it when you enter the project directory, and remove it
when you leave. Maybe there's a certain futility in trying to maintain
PATH security by using something that itself happily overrides the
'cd' command, but I think futility is greatly underrated.

Cheers,
Simon
