- Rake task improvements:
  - supports passing a test pattern (include and exclude) and FileLists besides 'spec/**/*_spec.rb
  - colors, formatter, and additional requires can be supplied from the command line via the SPEC_OPTS environment variable

- Formatters:
  - Fixed issues with RSpec's BaseTextFormatter and made ProgressFormatter the default when run via the Rake task
  - Fix redundant messages with expectation fails
  - Browser formatter now works w/ progress bar and has a 'Dump to console' link that will put a clickable stack trace for a failed example in the browser console
  - JSON formatter supported

- Fixed issues with constants/example group naming

- Basic nodejs runner support

- A lot more matchers enabled
