We already have IntelliSense (I don't mean just 'code completion' but real 
analytical IntelliSense that knows about class ancestry, scope, mixins, 
singletons, etc.) in Ruby In Steel Developer. In answer to your question on 
how to get that working in Ruby: it's very, very difficult. We had to write 
what amounts to a background Ruby interpreter to analyse code as it is being 
entered. Suffice to say, it wasn't a trivial undertaking ;-)

You might like to watch our short screencast for a simple demo:
