This is not meant for API endpoins, so there is in REST nor CRUD involved.
I get your point if I was to, lets say create a CMS. The routeTo filter is
to be used when creating a batman.js application in order to achieve things
such as pretty URLs.
For example, I have a post which has a collection of attachments. Now
each attachment should have its on URL within the post like so *
/posts/post-identifier/attachements/attachement-identifier*. This would
require me to have a URL with multiple arguments like the ones described in
the examples.
I'm not sure if I have understood your argument completely, however I
cannot see this requirement to be anything out of the ordinary nor can I
see it breaking any conventions. The REST endpoints will all stay the same,
thus rails will be happy.
