overide’n dynamic finders

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  def self.find_by_email(email, *opts)
    with_scope(:find => { :conditions => ['lower(email) = lower(?)', email] }) do
      find(:first, *opts)
    end
  end
end

update: this seems to have caused quite the stir. Obviously some people are missing the point, so I’ve posted a wee article about it.
