Thanks for the info!

How would you suggest I map them for the Acl lib to recognize them? I
was using the Auth->actionMap, but the Acl lib doesn't refer to the
Auth lib...

I suppose that my controller code could do the mapping, but I'm
wondering if there's already some wiring for this in the libs...

I was hoping to leave actions out of my aco tree, and just have
something like
    Controllers
    ----Surveys (with appropriate crud flags)
Are you suggesting that I include them in the aco tree, like:
    Controllers
    ----Surveys (no crud flags)
    --------index
    --------restart
    --------blahaction

btw, your tutorial is very helpful as well!
