It might be smart to add this to the doc's if it's really the intended behavior. If you think of it.. Once you define a name-space, you just have to put *everything* in it's name-space, so /action is basically a shorthand for root/action. Sadly, this would introduce another search and replace step (similar to renaming all the path helpers after nesting a resource). I believe these appearances of name-spaces where they don't belong ought to be solved with a bit better pattern recognition (i.e.: If route belongs to no namespaces, give it to root). I tried to quickly wrap my head around it, but it seems somebody really had a blast with meta-programming Routing::Route#generate. Wild enough to keep me in the no-name-spaced-controllers camp for a few more releases. I didn't get here without turning a few hair gray while trying to keep all the controller logic in nifty sub-folders though, so I really hope I remember this trick next time I work on any older projects :-) Thanks Oh, I nearly forgot about that one.
