The last patch submitted against the ticket allows you to do this:
def show
respond_to do |format|
format.xml { render :xml=>@item }
format.json { render :json=>@item }
end
end
def update
@item.update_attributes! params[:item]
end
It works for both XML and JSON (also HTML forms, not shown here), and you
can feed update the same result you got from the previous show, retaining
the PUT-what-you-GET.
