Absolutely nothing at all wrong with doing that. You might want to have a look at the direct_to_template view as well (see [1]) which provides a fairly nice shortcut for that sort of thing. But even your own very small view, if the generic one doesn't do everything you want is fine (and, I suspect, not at all uncommon. I use that pattern a fair bit).
