I just created a new project, and added the routes as you've defined
them above, and everything worked exactly as expected.
In my IndexController, indexAction() was defined as thus:
$this->view->route = $this->_getParam('shortpart', '__empty__');
and I created a view that simply did this:
<h2>Requested: <?php echo $this->route ?></h2>
It worked for anything I pushed into the URL.
My guess is you have other routes that are conflicting with the one
you've detailed. Can you provide your full routes configuration?
