/**
 * This abstract controller makes it easy to create a RESTful controller.  To use it, create a
 * subclass which defines the resource type and implements get/post/put/delete methods, like this:
 *
 * class Comment_Controller extends REST_Controller {
 *   protected $resource_type = "comment";  // this tells REST which model to use
 *
 *   public function _index() {
 *     // Handle GET request to /controller
 *   }
 *
 *   public function _show(ORM $comment) {
 *     // Handle GET request to /comments/{comment_id}
 *   }
 *
 *   public function _update(ORM $comment) {
 *     // Handle PUT request to /comments/{comment_id}
 *   }
 *
 *   public function _create(ORM $comment) {
 *     // Handle POST request to /comments
 *   }
 *
 *   public function _delete(ORM $comment) {
 *     // Handle DELETE request to /comments/{comments_id}
 *   }
 *
 *   public function _form_add($parameters) {
 *     // Handle GET request to /form/add/comments
 *     // Show a form for creating a new comment
 *   }
 *
 *   public function _form_edit(ORM $comment) {
 *     // Handle GET request to /form/edit/comments
 *     // Show a form for editing an existing comment
 *   }
 *
 * A request to http://example.com/gallery3/comments/3 will result in a call to
 * REST_Controller::__call(3) which will load up the comment associated with id 3.  If there's
 * no such comment, it returns a 404.  Otherwise, it will then delegate to
 * Comment_Controller::get() with the ORM instance as an argument.
