can all methods be made to fit REST?

I know that if you listen to DHH and similar REST evangelists that
they would have you believe that all methods can be reduced to the
seven that fit the REST conventions (create, show, update, destroy,
index, new, and edit). I am not yet convinced.

For example can anybody think what model I would use for
forgot_password and reset_password. I have a user model that has a
password as a field. I do not really want to have a password model
since I guess this is supposed to map to a password table in the
database.


What does everybody think. As you can see this is more of a
philosophical than a technical question.
Looking forward to some interesting replies.
