Thanks for sharing this. I am always surprised how easy to set up and useful rbenv plugins can be.

One question I had, do you use this on production servers? Or just your local development environment?

My recent production servers have been Heroku, so I already get a Ruby environment with Bundler installed.

If I was building servers with rbenv/ruby-build I think I'd prefer to codify the installation of bundler into the config and server management itself, rather than rely on this light bit of obfuscation to that process. I think this is more useful for a development machine.
