I suspect something is automatically adding anything from the I18n load path to the list of watchable directories without checking whether they are part of a gem or not.

If you did that you would receive more notifications, for example the log folder, the tmp folder and so on (although I don't know what the tradeoff is between this vs monitoring a larger number of paths). You might also want to reload code outside of the application top level folder (such as a gem containing an engine that you are developing concurrently with the application)
