I was working on a resources-related patch recently and came across an
implementation question...

When mapping resources with has_one associations, the has_one
association is modeled by the map_associations method as a singleton
resource.  I thought that a singleton resource was supposed to be
global to the application's current user.  has_one's are not global to
the user, they're global to the resource they belong to.  This also
has the (I think) unintended effect of looking for a single named
controller.  For instance:

map.resources :products, :has_one => :manufacturer

will look for a ManufacturerController not a ManufacturersController.
If I wish to access the manufacturers resource outside of the context
of this association, I'll need to add a ManufacturersController as
well.  Shouldn't has_one associations be mapped the same way has_many
associations are? or am I just not understanding the implementation
chosen?

Thanks,
Marc
