The problem with this is that from a users point of view it may not seem silly to have a link to the parent and grandparent.
So from an active scaffold point of view, when you click on the parent link you get a scaffold view for the child-parent relationship. If you click on grandparent you would get a scaffold view for the child-grandparent relationship which doesn't "really" exist.
