But doing this still goes against the rule of application modularity since you're putting batch processing code into the main application thus making it heavier. Instead, by just leveraing on ActiveRecord you can build very lite scripts that just do what you want without bringing up the whole application. :) Carlettos, yeah Rails is very good on running parts of an application from the command line.
