Rails core - Jan 2010 - controllers inside plugin do not work for me

I have this code in init.rb of a test plugin, but it does not make my
controller work that I have inside the plugin. I''m not sure what else
to try, this seems to be a recommended approach I found on various
tutorials.

%w{ controllers }.each do |dir|
  path = File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__), ''lib/app'', dir)
  $LOAD_PATH << path
  ActiveSupport::Dependencies.load_paths << path
  ActiveSupport::Dependencies.load_once_paths.delete(path)
end

if I add this it seems to work:

config.controller_paths << path

this guide (below) seems to advocate doing a require from init.rb, but
config.controller paths would have to be passed as it is not visible
elsewhere it appears:

Your plugin controllers can''t really subclass ApplicationController or
any other application components as they''ll get reset each request in
development mode.  If a plugin wants to include a controller it''ll
have to subclass ActionController::Base directly or, as your snippet
does, make that controller reload each request.
