rspec users - Nov 2006 - Should Selenium support be doing rollbacks?

Now that 0.7.0 is forcing me to write properly compartmented specs, I 
thought I''d give the "dead easy Selenium support" a try.

Is it supposed to all the things that rspec normally does for me, or is 
it just for using rspec-like grammar to surround Selenium tests?  
Specifically, should it roll back the database between specifications?  
I just did a quick test, and the result of running a Selenium test seems 
to stay in the database.

No, Jay, because there''s no way it could possibly wrap the test in a 
transaction when the test is being executed by a different process...

That does leave the question of "how do I test things that create unique 
records when I can only do that once?", but that''s a generic
Selenium
question, I suppose, not an rspec one.
