title: Embedding a live Rails console in a view
body: <p>Lately, I've been using the better_errors gem and I find the live shell capabilities (basically a Rails console embedded in your view) to be extraordinarily useful. I'd love to be able to have access a live shell of this sort which I could use for debugging / diagnostic purposes, even when I don't have an error. This would be something great to embed in my application controller and restrict to admin access so that I could use it in a staging or prod server environment.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any other similar tool, or perhaps a way to strip out the live shell from better_errors and embed it in my views?</p>
