Also, if you wanted to stick to the REST actions in your controllers, you could have a separate controller (with no additional model): think TutorsController and MultipleTutorsController or something like that. Rails conditions you to think that a controller must be unique to its model, but controllers don't even need models if that's not what they are doing, and multiple controllers can help refine your routing around a single model -- think a ContentsController and an AdminContentsController, with the same Content model.
