Implementing Google's hashbang/Ajax crawl with Jruby/Rails?

Working from here: http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=174992

An html snapshot of the page is advised for indexing. How can I do this with watij? With htmlunit?

Solution

    Basically, we use capybara to load and then render the page. Simple.

    I tried WebSpec and HtmlUnit first, but didn't have as much luck. (Then again, JRuby can complicate things.)
