This simply isn't supported currently.
Zend_Rest_Route uses defined modules + controllers to indicate
resources. Thus, if your module is "blog" and the controller "rest", it
will always use "blog/rest" as the resource end-point. It *should* honor
whatever the base URI for your application is -- I'm not sure from your
writeup if you're operating out of a subdirectory, or simply creating
aliases. If the former, you may be encountering a bug in how it detects
the current base URI. However, I suspect you're doing or wanting
aliasing, as the module name "blog" is nowhere in your desired URI path.
If you need to use an alias, which is what you're describing, you will
need to extend Zend_Rest_Route to add that functionality.
