There must be an URL for every "resource" you want to make accesible (in the
sense of access to something) I don't think the resources are the pages but
the objects this pages shows.

Depends on the functionality you want to do develop.

As Chris said, if your framework do it, just use it.

All of this is something the framework should deal with, not me.


It's your opinion, I've never needed a functionality like that, and haven't
found a lot of request for a such a functionality, so I assume it's not a
common need.

If you want something  that fits your needs you have two ways, do it
yourself or pay someone to do it.
