Rails - Jul 2006 - routing: controllers ''user'' and ''user/blogs'' not possible?

Hi,

 I have been searching for discussions on this issue to see whether this 
is a bug or feature in Rails'' routing mechanism.  Say I have a 
UserController corresponding to URL pattern /user, and now I want to 
have a separate controller under user called blogs, using the controller 
module feature, User::BlogsController, corresponding to URL pattern 
/user/blogs.  Such design looks intuitive but it looks like in Rails 
1.1.4, this is still not possible.  In routes.rb, this would look like

 map.connect ''user/blogs'', :controller =>
''user/blogs''
 map.connect ''user'', :controller =>
''user''

 Typing http://localhost:3000/user/blogs results in look-up for
''blogs''
controller instead.

 Has anyone looked into this before and known whether this behavior is a 
bug or limitation?


 Thanks,
 Philip

From some controller module discussions, it looks like this issue may 
also be related to the problem of having a model called User while using 
a controller module User with BlogsController under it (?).  Getting 
nice....
