Ruby/OCI8 is one of my favorite Ruby libraries. Very nice.
The only thing I have occasionally wanted is better support for
URL-style connect strings, rather than needing Net8/TNS-style entries.
There are connect strings supported by the InstantClient that OCI8
cannot handle.

Someone at Oracle should help out with that *hint hint*. :)

Just what you've written there would be fine by me.
To my knowledge, ruby/oci8 does not allow that syntax.
