That works when running one at a time. When I want to run all my specs how do I ensure the requires are applied to the appropriate features? It is not all my stories, only a subset that are dual- purposed. Do I need to have directories for those that can be run dual mode and those that are not, and then have a script that runs the 3 cases?

It appears we were too clever, but I think this would be a reasonable use of
stories.

We tried to have a story file run with 2 different sets of steps to use the same story against both the UI using selenium and against the server API using regular get/put/post. This way we could spec the server API and the
UI while ensuring they are in sync for the scenario in question.  But
stories get confused when there are stories or scenarios with the same
names.

Does Cucumber deal with this any better than the story runner? Given that it searches for steps rather than having them declared, I would think you
can not share story files for different steps?

You can do this, you'd just put the steps in different directories and
tell cucumber to require the files in one directory for one run, and
another for another run. ie:

  cucumber --require features/steps/selenium/  features/
AND
  cucumber --require features/steps/normal/     features/
