It's not easily ignored. If you don't want it to spit out .coffee templates and instead get .js templates, you can change that... but you have to find out how (I for one don't know how). It's an added inconvenience. The person who's an early adopter to a new language like coffeescript should be the ones inconvenienced.

When 3.1 is released, within hours a google search for 'how the hell do I make rails spit out javascript instead of coffeescript' (or 'rails js cs', most likely) will produce hundreds of results, all of which explain the one-line change necessary in excruciating detail.
